One Flower Wednesday!

                              Ethan's I SPY quilt has gained more "FUN" flower petals this week...
Two flowers opened their blooms even more, showing an outer layer of "FUN" petals!
A recent photo of the pergola at Dungeness. Do I spy a quilt pattern being cast by shadows!?!
Seed pods have formed on this lovely vine, which reappeared in recent years.

Be sure and see Danielle's lovely little French flower this week! http://daantjesheart.blogspot.com/2010/06/hexagon-1-2-3-enz-en-frankrijk.html

and Tineke has the most beautiful video along with her Poppies!
