What a neat pattern!!! It's really going to be pretty! Your glads are lovely. Do you have to dig them annually, or can you get by with mulching? They were my late DH's favorite flower. He always called them "funeral flowers" and I knew exactly what he meant. Little did he know he would receive a LOT of them later on.

Maryq I just love your quilt in progress! Your fabric choices are beautiful! That pattern is fun. You are doing a wonderful job.

And my goodness...your Glads are just gorgeous! Beautiful colors. I think you must have a green thumb. You are so talented Mary. How many Glads do you have? These are sure pretty! Thank You for sharing.

Huge Hugs

OK. Funny funny. Folks were commenting about glads and I kept going back to the quilt pic and wondered what they were talking about. Then I finally scrolled to the bottom and WOW!!!!!Those are beautiful glads. I used to plant some every year. They are such bright colors.

Your quilt is very pretty. I haven't seen this pattern before but I really like the fabric and colors you chose. Makes a nice autumn one. I usually end up ripping out some of those pin wheel blocks. I don't think they like me. You are doing a great job. We all rip things out but it is satisfying when we finally finish it.

Hang in there and happy quilting. Now that I am un-confused and see both the pics, thanks so much for sharing. It was worth scrolling down for more beauty. God bless and hugs, Shirley Mae

A neat quilt and beautiful flowers. I planted glads so late this year that we may not have blooms. Dahlias are starting though.
