I'm in, although I'll probably only manage a quick sketch this month. I know my week ahead is looking very busy.

Beautiful flowers Jennifer!

Rose - is it possible to post a a 'full-size' image on Flickr ( or somewhere that provides images that are bigger than Blogger allows?

Rose Welty said...

Great everyone, this is so fun.

Katherine, I have emailed Jennifer to see if she has a higher res photo. If she does and agrees, then one of us will upload it. I'll update the post with a link later. Yes, I should have thought of that option earlier!
