POINSETTIAS AT CHRISTMAS.

At one time, the poinsettias only connection with Christmas was their appealing bright red color. They were rare, especially in Northern climes. Now, poinsettias are as common as the Christmas tree. They have been hybridized to be perfectly formed and multicolored. Their color lingers and cheers me all through the gray days of winter.

This is a quilt block.
As a theme, I think the artists and photographers did them justice.
