 Some of my flowers in my yard.... Love the colors..

 Picked up this really cool material ....for our 1967 vintage camper...not really sure what I am going to use it for but it makes me happy when I look at it. Thinking about a tablecloth, dishtowels, pillow or making a banner with it.......so what I will do is lay it out somewhere where I have to walk past it for a few days and then it will come to me....
