Applique Thursday 6/7/12

A bit more progress.  Because I like that blue fabric so much, I'm not going to add the cross hatching on the basket. Three more flowers to go!

Would love to admire your eye candy, applique or not.  Last week's batik charm winner was Rita.  Rita, I mailed your charm Wednesday.

Another batik charm waits for someone who comments or links. You get two chances if you comment and link.  Look forward to hearing from you and visiting your blogs.

  5. YES that is a "antirhinum" it us a native to tropical America rain forest, The higher the humidity the better, the leaves my drop if the humidity drops below 50%, these are no more difficult to grow then house plants or some Orchids. You want to keep the leaves lose shiny texture and may die if humidity drops below 50% for a few days, keep pots in a trays of moist gravel, in bathroom, or under polyethylene cover. Sponge or spray leaves several times daily. have plant in good light but not direct light, will get along in regular house temp. Growth stops at about 65 Degrees, protect form drafts, I know seems like a lot but it is worth it, Give light feeding every 4 weeks. and soil should be course, porous mix of leaf mod, sandy soil, and shredded osmunda. I think that should help you, take care and hope you get well very soon yes I had the same thing done to me also, took no time I was up and running, I trust you will be going soon, take care and Cheers angeljeanne (Jeanne)

  6. I love the blue fabric also and bought a fat quarter at some point for my stash. Not much left now. Really enjoy seeing how you are using it. Good job on the appliqué.
