I didn't have a chance to report on my trip to Colorado in last week's
newsletter so here's the scoop. Unfortuantely I didn't get to meet
Mario but I did visit the shop where his flowers are sold and of course
I had to buy one. Click
here to see more photos and closeups of this flower stem.
I was awed and moved by the Colorado landscape.
Here are some photos of places I visited.
I also saw a slide show by well known Coloardo photograph John Fielder.
For a real treat take a look at his
Web site.
Beaded Flower on Magazine Cover!
In the
October 6th newsletter I mentioned how the bees loved the beaded
flowers and one bee specifically enjoyed the thistle. It was such a fun
photo that I sent it too the editor at
Bee Culture Magazine.
He and his staff enjoyed it so much that they put the picture on the cover of this
month's issue!
For a closeup of the thistle (pattern coming soon) click on the October 6th
newsletter link above.
Christmas Beading!
There's plenty of time to make beautiful holiday decorations
Beaded Garden has several Poinsettia patterns available
and each one is a little different.
