#OTD Anna Seward, #English #Romantic #Poet, is born.
She was often called the Swan of Lichfield.
Anna wrote a #Poem called "To the #Poppy," which ends with these #Words:
"#Kind #Dreams #Oblivious from thy #Juice proceed,
Thou #Flimsy, #Showy, #Melancholy #Weed."

The poppy is an #August #Birth #Flower.
It is a #Symbol of #Remembrance.
In #Floriography, or the #Language of #Flowers, the Poppy represents #Comfort & #Solace.

The Bloom quilt flimsy is finished. I'm hoping to quilt it tonight or this weekend. This was a fun project for the Rainbow Scrap Challenge. #quilt #quilting #rainbowscrapchallenge #flimsy
