Got my homework done

I brought home some homework for our church sewing circle. We had gotten behind sewing the preemie items with all of the bad weather this winter. We meet today so I finished up a little pile. I have 3 more little quilts made of scraps in the works, so maybe I'll get one more done before I leave at noon. My sister-in-law gives me an amaryllis every year. This one started blooming a couple days ago. It has 5 buds on this stem, you can see a second bud stem to the left of the open flower which will probably open in a couple days, and it has a third bud stem starting to grow. This one is called Charisma. It is a beauty!
I had some comments yesterday from people with a Blogger account but I couldn't reply to them because they don't have their email enabled. So.....If you have a Blogger account, if you go into EDIT PROFILE, there is a box to put a check mark in, in front of Show My Email. If you do that, then when you leave a comment I can answer your questions. It only shows the word Email on your profile page, not the actual address. I like to reply to the people who comment even though I know some bloggers never do. So.....if you leave a comment and want a comment back, enable your email link.

  1. My amaryllis is just shooting up, a gift from my daughter-in-law. This one of yours is amazing!

  2. Very pretty. Question.....can amaryllis bulbs be kept from year to year and be planted to bloom again each year? I need to get myself one next year...as right about this time, I could use some flowers!!! I never remember to plant hyacinths and tulips and daffodils inside...and I should do THAT, too. Some forced "sunshine" is good in the winter months! Thanks for sharing yours!

  3. What a gorgeous amaryllis -- I don't think I've ever seen one quite like that. And those preemie items are so sweet.

  5. Adorable flower! -- About answering comments: Hmm. You bother to answer each comment!? I am very happy to get a personal response. But if this should ever become a burden, I'd feel kind of guilty.

  9. Hi Wanda, Those premie items are so cuddly looking.

    Outstanding amaryllis color! I didn't get one this year but should make a point to do that as they are so impressive and easy.

    I'm enjoying the "warm" weather (we have 45 degrees).

  10. The amaryllis is very nice. I like the variegation in color. Thank you for so often replying to my comments (I don't expect a response on this, really).

  11. Hi Wanda, I missed your blog for a few days - the black & white strata quilt is amazing. And I love your batik quilts as well. The amaryllis is beautiful. As always, your blog is eye candy!

  12. Love the little baby quilts... did you make the little shirts, too?

    I used to get an Amaryllis every year and loved waiting and watching it bloom. I am going to have to start that up again. Yours are beautiful.

  13. Do you have a link to the premie outfits? Some of us would like to make these using our stashes.

  14. Your amaryllis is gorgeous. I was so disappointed as I gave my Mum one for Christmas but it didn't bloom - only leaves came up.
