Winter Flower Dreams




Today when I was about to sip my tea, I went and got my camera instead when I saw the amaryllis reflected in my cup. I'm continuing to stitch flowers and the pale pink one on the faded kimono silk seemed in keeping with the reduced colour of the season. Later while out on a walk, I discovered this real flower - a little pale, but undaunted by winter.

Yes - with the turn of the year I'm anticipating spring and thinking about it as I stitch - how so much colourful life is born from the dark earth. Snowdrops here are sometimes blooming by the end of this month.
