Happy birthday Patti, I was reading your blog and looking at your flowers thinking, boy, that sure looks like the things we have growing around here so I looked at your profile and found out that you live in the same town I do. AND, we are the same age and both quilters, maybe we could meet one of these days for some quilting! Carline
Happy birthday Patti!
