Inspiration and promise…
It was the wind, the howling bitter wind, that kept me from my walk this week. As I slogged my way around blogland, I saw pictures not only promising spring’s arrival, but daffodils. I checked the hummingbird migration chart and sure enough, the movement north had begun. But, when I looked out my own windows, there was winter…everywhere. Only the bird chatter held promise. I started to walk around the house, looking for inspiration… for the promise. It was everywhere. I was surrounded. The trick to seeing is to open your eyes and your mind. I started taking pictures of all the lovely orchids in bloom. You’ve all seen them, so I changed my tack. Maybe you’ve not seen the promise.
(they came, I tried, and I love them)
inspiration is the easy part… I’ll bet it’s at your house too.
(or maybe color and texture??)

Great photos, all of them, but that yarn? Wow!
Just this morning I heard the cocphony of birds sounds that held the most promise.
Wow, you got a little sneaky with those pics;) Very nice! The yarn?
Dude the yarn? Some of those those colors were definitely NOT there yesterday! Pure porn! The sock yarn- is that available or has that skein been sucked up already? Looks like “Sparrow”.
There is little promise outside right now. What’s not under the snow is still fast asleep.
In the house, I’ve started feeding the houseplants again.
Awright, now I’m going to be longing for pussywillows.
Of course you have indoor greenery to photograph. Me, with kitties and a black thumb…not so much. I’ll enjoy yours!
Did ya see my woodpecker at cindyknits?
Did you buy the whole set of interchangeables? Tell all……………..
It almost looks like spring in your pictures….sigh….it was -20 degrees here last night with frozen pipes this morning. I am longing for spring time inspiration!
