morning glory madness

This bolt is an excellent example of gorgeous vintage yukata cotton. It's a classic combination of indigo and white cotton, printed via the chusen process.

I love the motif—morning glories open to the sun, buds and tendrils flowing along the yardage.

When I first got to Seattle, I actually bought a package of morning glory seeds. Twenty-five years later, morning glories are a menace in my yard. They grow anywhere and everywhere. Yet they are still undeniably a lovely plant.
