This is Why They Call Them Morning Glory(s)

The morning glory is something I finally got settled enough to grow this year. I was excited to see that my house had a chain link fence - someone else described it as "an ugly chain link fence" but I knew immediately that it would be a support for my morning glory. I planted seeds and got 2 colors - a huge heavenly sky blue and a smaller red with a pink star.
Every morning after sunrise I go out and see this wonderful creation.
Joy, that is incredible. Would it be okay for me to create a pattern for my needlepoint? I would of course, send you the finished product.

The close up is beautiful. Thanks for sharing the beauty you see.
ReplyDeleteYes, Lady Stephanie you can create a pattern for your needlepoint from the image. Send me a photo of the finished product and I'll share it.
