Chicory

This is an ink & watercolour sketch I did of Chicory, a lovely wildflower that grows in my region. True blue flowers are unusual in the plant world.

I've been thinking about creating a quilt pattern series of wildflowers. Manitoulin Island, one of the most amazing wildflower areas of this part of Canada, is only an hour away from my home. I plan to get more sketching time in this year, and there will be new quilts as a result.
