Baptisia in our old garden
It made me so happy to see that little seed rise up from the dirt. Can't explain it.
And then I had another happy event. Both of the batches of bread dough rose faster than usual and I baked two perfect loaves in less than four hours. This is the recipe that is no knead, in which one waits overnight to get the results. Not this time, and I don't have a clue why. Warm kitchen? Extra yeast, better flour, warmer water? Who knows. It was just a nice event.
And for number three in this set of happy little things, I went out to the garage storage shelves and unearthed some prints that have finally aged long enough to use. Dots and stripes. Yup. Ready made dots. Ready made skinny stripes. That doesn't mean I won't be cuttin' and strippin my own patterns, just adding some others to the mix.
So I spent the day fusing new old fabrics to make use of in the new series. These are from about '95 when I got rid of all my prints but the really graphic ones. Some black and white. This is for Wanda and Brooke...

ReplyDeleteDo you have any extra of those seeds? I may have to find one of those plants for my garden next summer. I remember it in yours and it was "bodacious" for sure!
