I was amazed, on our recent trip thru California, with the beautiful lavendar Jacaranda trees that were in bloom everywhere. You don't see such sights in the desert! Of course, I HAD to have a photo! I used Alfazema by Loreta Labarca for this page. The alpha is also by Loreta. You can find Alfazema at daisie.com. The swirl is by Anne Adejong and I used a glitter style on it. Stitching by Dani Mogstad was color-altered by me.
