Beautiful Cactus illio. The dark skies go with our skies only our skies are that cold grey of winter. An oh so typical winter day. Happy CM and Solstice.

This has a batik quality about it, very pretty. We actually warmed up a bit on the first day of winter...high 20's. We are hoping it doesn't go above freezing because then it will be a mess. HCM!

Wow what a beautiful piece this is again!!!!
Love those colors and the white.
I still don't know how you do the white ;)

It is all white here, beautiful , but the whole country is disrupted.

Hope you are enjoying the days before Christmas and that your awful migraine stays away!

First day of winter - we seem to have been in the thick of this snow for ages here in East Anglia (England). Beautiful colours and design as usual.

Very beautiful Margaret! I love the style and colors. I just joined Cactus Monday, in anticipation of moving out to the desert myself! I bet it's beautiful there. :)
