I'm working on some finishes, so I hope to have some quilty stuff to show soon. But in the mean time I thought I'd document that the Orchid is blooming! It was actually given to Heather as a gift a while back, but she has left it in the kitchen so I think I've inherited it. I used to be really into raising African Violets, and had a bunch of them but after some time I let that go, so I've enjoyed having the Orchid around lately. So far the cat has not gnawed on the leaves at all, so that's a good sign.
It may not ever bloom again for me, so this could be quite an event! I'm actually taking more delight in this than I thought I would, so maybe that means I need to get a couple of African Violets again :)
Enjoy the day!

I've also been thinking about adding some African Violets back to my kitchen. Beautiful orchid.
ReplyDeleteI think it means you need some orchids. Once you have found their "happy spot" you have blooms for weeks, not days.....
ReplyDeleteBeautiful.

No, I didnt give it to you, I just dont have any surfaces in my room for it to live on. But maybe when I move out, I'll leave it there to remind you that you still have an eldest daughter... :P
ReplyDeleteThat is a beautiful orchid.
ReplyDeleteI love African Violets too. I hope you get some more soon.
