Hmmm - what are you going to do with it?

the crazy colorful one is perfect!! lol, for those reading the post, i have been looking for a long time to find 'just the right fabric' to make a small quilt for a friend of mine in oregon. joey is only 31, but she has a rare stomach disorder, cannot eat, is tube fed, has more ports coming out of her than i've ever counted, and is not going to be around to reach an old age. she has a medical card for marijuana; it really helps her pain level alot, and keeps her nausea down. it's better than the 3-4 trips she makes to the ER by ambulance every month because she can't stop the nausea, and the pain has her doubled over when she can get out of bed. she's no bigger than a minute; this will just make her day!! thank you so much! :)

I would call them Lupine leaves and use them in something, Ha! The colors are wonderful and it's not the real thing so what the heck?!!

Ok so I have to ask is the fabric made of hemp :)

I doubt it! The fabric would be made of cotton.

Well, gee. I ran across the picture... and posted it as a lark... and I already have someone interested in the fabric.

!!

Sure was an unexpected way to end the night!

I have a house plant called Aralia, it looks like this....everyone thinks it's "wacky baccy". Perhaps yours is Aralia.

I like the colorful one better! Like Lalaland says, once cut up you probably won't be able to tell what it is unless you are making a big block quilt :D

You're right! I forgot about them, I used to have one.

I had one of those too! Aralia Elegantissima, I think it was. A lovely graceful plant that eventually succumbed to a spider mite infestation.

Pity... I liked that plant... everybody kept asking if it was pot! Well, that's not why I liked it...!

I have it on the patio now, when I first got it my kids were quite young, both the little guys came out in hives as soon as they got near it.....Gosh, my boys are 18 and 21 now, the plant must be at least 10 years old.
