Amaryllis About To Bloom

Back yard Amaryllis - April 2013

The bulb was forced inside for Christmas two years ago and then planted in the back yard garden. Wasn't sure if it would ever bloom again. Can't wait to see its beauty. My someone special celebrated a birthday this week, so grateful to have him in my life. All the birthday wishes were greatly appreciated.
Hope all is well in your corner of the planet. Remember to reduce, reuse and recycle.
Enjoy the journey.

Love The Light

Sewing Bits

 Did a bit of sewing over the past couple of weeks which means I am slowly working through some of my fabric stash. I made a throw for the house, a quick project and super cuddly. Made up seven totes, always useful, using this pattern (minus the lining).  Also put together another infinity scarf using a wonderfully soft fabric.  Finally put together a new duvet cover and am quite pleased with it, I have posted an image on flickr. Also finished up a few quilt blocks, using up some leftover fabric from previous projects and am still trying to decide how they will come together in a quilt front or two (see flickr for images).
Everything is very green after the rain we have had. It has been a great spring for wildflowers and the roses are blooming up a storm.  The vegetables are progressing slowly but surely.  The hummingbirds have made an appearance so the feeders are out and frequently attended by the winged wonders.  Hope all is well wherever you are.  Enjoy the journey.
