Are they flowers or berries? There's a fall vine, something like firebush or something? It's beautiful in the photo whatever it is.<BR/><BR/>The other flower you asked about is canna. It does look like the trillium. Trillium, though, is a woodland flower, small, grows in the spring. Canna gets very tall. It's tropical, so we can only grow it here as an annual. I remember seeing them in your front yard there last August.<BR/><BR/>Once I asked Larry (b-head) if a rhodendron was a hydrangrea. That was pretty early in my flower schooling. He looked at me like I was from Mars. (Wasn't he from someplace like that?)<BR/><BR/>How clever of you to knit the cap and gloves in opposite combinations, like a negative and positive. I hope Heather will bring them to Sapphos this week. I'll take a pic. :D<BR/><BR/>The graphics and patterns you're creating blow me away. That is true craft, when you design your own. Well you've been doing that always, but it still amazes me, because it's such a process of trial and error and takes a lot of patience.<BR/><BR/>"it's funny to me how pixelated and nintendo-like the original image is on the graph paper, but when knit, it becomes organic and smooth." I LOVE THAT.<BR/><BR/>You are adored, little one.Ruthhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14204074161539605133noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8849090877412244309.post-10693591920243799002007-09-30T08:30:00.000-04:002007-09-30T08:30:00.000-04:00Hi Lesley,Oy!

Flowers are always inspiration. I think I may have had a Flowers book similar to that as a kid. I loved looking at the illustrations. :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
