A Patchwork Quilt

Someone down the street made two big mounds of dirt in their front yard and covered them with a patchwork of moss clumps. It is so strange and wonderful. I have always been drawn to moss for its lovely velvety appearance and am nurturing a moss patio behind my house. It looks like something a fairy princess would take a nap on in the woods.

Snowflakes in October

Well, not really. These snowflakes are made from bacon grease that soaked through a paper towel onto a glass plate. I held the glass plate up to the window for better light. You never know where you'll find an interesting pattern!
