May Iris

Lavender and purple iris are blooming in abundance here in May.  As is custom, each of the mother's that came to Sunday services received one along with a gift.  This year I made covered notebooks for everyone using all sorts of fabrics from my stash.

 

 

This is the newest composter we found at Costco.  It rotates on ball bearings and is supposed to turn yard waste and such into rich soil in about six weeks.  You turn it once a day.  It looks either like a huge bowling ball or a bomb, not sure which.  Maybe with the tree trunk from below poking out like a fuse, it is more like the latter.  :-)
