@funcountess The flower on this one is creamy white. I have had it for about 12 years, and it was a rescue, in a huge pot. Our little valley seems to have its own weather pattern. Today I trimmed back two Japanese burberry bushes that flank the west facing livingroom window, and hope to get an hour or two in each day on yard work. You know, a little piece at a time.
The quilt was done in 1999. It hung in an annual show in that same year, put on by the Glendale [CA] Quilt Guild. When you have a passion to see a "mind's eye" project turn into 3D, you find the time.

I must hand it to you Ginger, you are an inspiration, as well as many others. I trim bushes,many,many rose bushes and have tackled low branches on trees, but suffer afterwards. I think I am older then you(77). So energy level can come and go.
If it was not for constant house issues, I could dig in with fun art projects.
Your quilt sounds beautiful. Do you still make them?
Other then the suggestions I sent you on Monday, I don’t know of anymore for your orchid cactus. Probably the best is the nursery covering. Yours is more sensitive, like mine according to the person at the plant nursery.
Is your husband tired of the long drive back and forth into California? At least the 101 is fairly empty.
Take care,
Funcountess
