Now I want to make a fall quilt :thumbup: Don't you just love the beauty of this world!
I guess I can quote myself :lol: I stand corrected, several have mentioned that it is Sumac, so, I googled images, and sure enough, thats what it is. I learned that it is a shrub & it grows on road sides and in the edges of fields.It depends on birds and animals to spread its seeds. They love the berries and it provides shelter too. So again I have learned something new today from this board. Thanks :thumbup:
