ScrapHappy Saturday - New Month, New Color



Those of us in the US are enjoying a three day weekend.  I hope that means more sewing time for you all.  In celebration of a new month our new colors of rose red and gold, I have this beautiful bundle of hand dyed fabric from Vicki Welsh.  Just leave me a comment on this post with your favorite type of flower.  I'll draw randomly on Monday for the fabric.  Good luck to you all!

  2. This year, my favorite flower is the zinnia. They are blooming profusely in my yard and bring such a big shot of bright color.

  5. My favorite flower is the Iris, in all its various shades of purple. Rises come in second, but they don't work in my garden.

  6. Shasta Daisies and full blown deep pink roses -- we used those flowers when we held a rededication of our wedding vows and I still love looking at the flower photos all these years later (we celebrated 41 years this year). So happy that red is the color for September -- I have LOTS of red scraps.

  11. My favourite flowers are sweet peas. I have some growing on my balcony now, but unfortunately they never recovered from the storm damage (just an ordinary storm - no hurricanes here!) of a month or so ago, but the few there are smell beautiful! I'm glad you missed the worst of the hurricane.

  17. Roses have always been my favorite flower. My grandfather had an amazing rose garden, which I used to wander when I was young. My aunt (not my mom) inherited the rose gene, and taught me a lot about rose pruning and care. Wherever I have lived, I have planted roses in profusion - rose trees, miniatures, tea roses, floribundas, etc.

  26. There are so many favorites that it is hard to pick just one! Guess it would have to be geraniums. Mine go "bananas" every summer. robinsheloratearthlinkdotnet

  44. Violets and snowdrops have to be my favorite flowers. They always surprise us so early during the winter promising spring just around the corner. The September colors are very lovely.

    ReplyDelete
  45. One favorite flower? Seriously? I love pansies, poppies, hollyhocks, and peonies just to name a few. DH recently started planting Zinnias, and I love their little buds! Yep, I love flowers.

    ReplyDelete
  46. I love flowers! Though y absolute favorites are actually flowering trees. Dogwoods are at the top of the list, with magnolias not too far behind.

    ReplyDelete
  47. Tulips are without a doubt my favorite. Unfortunately they are also the deer'sfavorite, so I never bother to plant them.

    ReplyDelete
  48. It's almost fall and my favourite flower is blooming in some gardens. Asters, in all of their many colours, are my favourite.

    ReplyDelete

    ReplyDelete
  50. they are all my favorite at one time or another. Will pick a pink Hibiscus the size of a breakfast plate for today.

  51. My favorite flower depends on the season, so right now is the sunflower. Love that bright yellow gold!

    ReplyDelete
  52. I love what some would see as a weed, Queen Anne's lace. The lacy openness of the flowers intrigue me.

    ReplyDelete
  53. I like daises. Such simple, happy flowers.

    ReplyDelete
  54. I love carnations, especially the multi colored ones.

    ReplyDelete
  55. My favorite flower is actually the Iris. A lot of that stems from the fact that I can grow those each year with ease. I love that I have added several new colors of them to my yard over the years.

    ReplyDelete
  56. I'd have to say Orchids or Dahlias!

  58. We, in Canada, also have a three day weekend. It is still Monday for me, so I hope I'm not too late for the draw. (If so, too bad for me lol.) My favourite flower is Rudbeckia (and daisies) and for my exotic flower (not growing in Canada) is the Orchid (my wedding bouquet flower). Thanks for the chance. ;^)

  59. My favorite flower is the bearded iris -- so intricate! SO beautiful!! I love them in ALL colors, and nothing would please me more than if someone could cross-breed a bearded iris that would also make a lasting cut flower. Thanks for the chance to win. . . I LOVE your blog, and try to never miss a post. [lynnstck(at)yahoo.com]
