Coxcomb.........

Sorry, so long in updating. Summer fly right by like it always does. We went to the Smokies about a month ago, it was awesome!!! We took our little dog Libby, Gatlinburg is a very pet-friendly town. We have had Libby a year now. I bet it is beautiful in the Smokies right now with the leaves changing!!


Each Friday, I've been visiting a Farmers Market in Fort Wayne, and I bought this gorgeous Coxcomb. Such a unique flower. I plan to hang my bouquet and dry it so I can keep it around for a long time! I had to plan and hook a Coxcomb rug too! I just listed it on ebay! I did some gradation dyeing to get the colors for my flowers. FUN!

Absolutely gorgeous! Have you been to Paula's (not sure of the actual name of the shop) in Albion? I live over the line in Bryan and am looking for someone who's been there to give me a review. ~Ann

Thanks to everyone! I know, finally Joanne...lol....

Ann, I have never been there, sorry wish I had, there is nothing near me, everything is 2 - 3 hours away, and some places you have to call ahead, etc...
