Thanks everyone! I thought some would want to see it. :D

Just wondering: Do you put your pictures up in your classroom or at school?
I just know your going to say, "Of course!" :D
Have you even put them on a quilt?
This is spectacular. I love panises right after roses, and I love pink, yellow and green together...and, and , and :wink:

Beautiful Karla. I love pansies and their cute little 'faces'! Did you know that the name comes from the French 'pensée' meaning 'thought' so it's very appropriate as a remembrance flower. :D

Another question about "have you.............?" Have you ever done the one where the flower is placed on cotton fabric and smashed with a mallet? The dye of the flower "stains" the fabric. It's a beautiful art. I don't know the whole process, but have seen it done on TV. One woman had made blocks for a quilt doing this. That pansy would be beautiful on a quilt. (But would hate smashing it. :roll: )
