Flowers are pretty, they smell nice, and, sometimes, they kill cancer.
Madagascar periwinkle, a sweet flower that blooms in shades of pink and purple, contains alkaloids used in cancer treatments. Lovely autumn crocus is the natural source of colchicine, a drug that treats gout and joint pain. And if someone you love is on a digoxin prescription for heart disease, you can thank its source: wild foxglove.
Of course, for the non-medical things that ail you, I always say that quilting is the best medicine, and today’s Deal is just what the doctor ordered! Bring the sweetness and creativity of embroidered flowers to your next project with this embroidery kit.
