Work continues on circle and bow tie blocks as well as
quilting the Jill Finley quilt, but I have been hard pressed to sit down at
the keyboard and record my progress.
The two workshops I attended week before last with Karen
Combs were fabulous. Everything she said
seemed either to be a new concept to me or a familiar concept presented in a
new light. I went home both nights very
tired, but happy. Here are the blocks I
constructed from the workshop on illusions.
Since then Bob and I have made several wildflower rides and
trips to the country.
The flowers have
peaked earlier than usual this year and have made an unexpectedly good
show. I love it when the oranges and blues are mixed together.
I always try to memorize the good years in
my mind’s eye knowing droughts will inevitably return and we will have sparse
years. Of course, I also took many
pictures. Between the workshops and flowers, my March 2016 folder has 221 pictures, quite a lot for me.

The blue and orange flowers together are beautiful. I'm glad you got substantial rain to have more blooms this year.
Amazing blocks you did....great transparency. That is hard for me to do. Your wild flower photos are beautiful. In my yard the combo is purple and yellow right now.
Great blocks and great flowers!!
The flowers were incredible as we traveled home through the Hill Country! They did bloom early so our trek caught the ending (which was still gorgeous...even in the drizzle/rain!).
