Boxy pouch progress, poppies and a coneflower
I have been busy working on the boxy pouches when I have a few minutes. So far I have the handles topstitched and the zippers installed. It is a bit fussy to sew the zippers, but it's not hard. Tonight, I will press them and top stitch them along the zipper. After that, finishing them will go fast.
I checked out my California poppy plants again after work. The flowers only last one day, but they continuously bloom for months. This plant has bigger flowers than any I have ever had. The flowers are a good 3" across. It was hard to get a good picture because the wind was gusting hard yesterday. See the ones toward the top of the picture? Those are the typical sized flowers and are 2" across.
This is the furthest along bud on the coneflowers. I think I will give it a drink tonight to help it along. Other than the little bit of rain we had the other day, the weather has been dry and mostly sunny.
I know Wanda mentioned all her comments showed as no-reply. Mine are showing that was too now. Google must have done something.

I love the late fall flowers. It's like they are holding off winter just a little bit longer.
