Transformation.....

A Monarch caterpillar decide that this wall plaque on our patio, was where it wanted to make it's amazing transformation. We came out one morning and this lovely chrysalis was hanging form the edge of the wall plaque. 


several days later it was changing........




then we came home the next afternoon and .....

we had missed it..... but one of the monarch butterflies fluttering about our yard started it's flight right here.

Oh that's so neat! bummer that you missed it.
I found your blog through a search for Naples Quilt shops. Did you used to own a store? My mom lives in the area and I'm planning to visit this summer. Can you recommend any local stores?

Hi Becky, no I've never had a quilt shop but for some reason I got listed as one. There are a couple of area quilt shops. One is SEW Studio in Naples in the Greetree Plaza and the other is Quilt Lover's Hangout in N. Ft. Myers. Enjoy your visit this summer.
