So far, on Audrey's Bramble QAL,
I have slow stitched
the basket with a buttonhole stitch
and
whip stitched the stems with brown...
[Ignore the bottom fabric it is the
pillow upon which I am sewing]
***********************************
This morning's travels led me
to Big Y where I found this
beauty:
A Christmas Cactus in full bud mode...
;))))
I love the cute little reindeer attached...
It appears that the flowers are tinged
with a peach-ey color--but
we shall wait and see when they flower.....
Now I own two cacti:
This one is a raspberry color when
it first blooms and then
fades to a light, rosy pink...
********************
Yesterday we totally re-configured our
side tv room--or rather Tom did most
of it!! I now have three windows for
plants that I can use...
Before, our recliner and our big screen
tv were blocking most of our windows...
Once Christmas is over, I will go
hunting for a nice Begonia and
A tall corner low light plant
for these spots and perhaps
an African Violet, too...
[Sorry for the dark photo, but my phone
camera doesn't fix the lighting any better]
The little tabletop Christmas
tree will (hopefully) be
replaced by a nice begonia...
These windows face the North, and
on the right, the East in the corner...
I sit right along that righthand corner
with that lovely view
of the wooded area
in our backyard...
We are both recuperating
from this move and
re-settlement of our room...
UFFF-DAH!!
Hugs, Julierose,
