More Flowers and an Apron

 One of my Amaryllis decided to bloom. Her blooms are so heavy that I've had to prop up the stalk that holds them.  Now I noticed that another Amaryllis has a flower stalk ( scape) emerging.


 I have just 2 Dahlias, both are in pots on the porch.



 I don't sew but if I did I'd try making this pretty apron that I saw on Pinterest.


 Thanks for visiting,  

         Have a pleasant weekend

  3. Your flowers are beautiful!
    The apron is like from good old times, when women loved to make good work in the kitchen. Should be modern again!

  5. The flowers are beautiful! I would be happy with either one. That apron is cute...I have been in the mood to make one and don't know if I got here with my apron patterns or not. I hope I did. It has been a long time since I made one, but they are a favorite thing to make.

  6. I really like dahlias but currently there are not any in our garden - I might have to suggest to son that he buys one or two!
    That apron is really pretty :)
    (I see your first comment (from K-J-) is identical to ones I have been receiving. I'm suspicious!)

  8. Hmm... I just recognized a Plant Coveting temptation in myself. Merely looking at your dahlia made me think once again that I want to have one again, I *need* one. Well, I will resist that thought, because just this week I bought quite a few plants which I haven't even found a place for yet!!

  9. Your blooms are gorgeous - it is so nice to enjoy beautiful blooms throughout the summer! And I love that apron too! I don't wear aprons as much in the summer, but love them in the fall and winter months. Your tea cups in your banner photo is gorgeous! Hopefully you are staying cool in this hot weather!

  17. Your Amaryllis is beautiful. Mine is doing well this summer but no buds I'm just happy it's growing because I have had no experience with growing them before.

  18. Loving those beautiful flowers! I used to sew but was no seamstress. I could sew enough to get by. Have sewn in years. The apron is a cutie for sure. Happy Monday dear GM. Hugs and blessings, Cindy
