Hello Precious Friends!
Hope and pray that all of you are choosing all your most favorite colors to beautify the paintings of your lovely lives.
As we all get this painting of life only as a outline and all that we put in it to make it Meaningful, Unique and Beautiful is our OWN CHOICE.
End of the day the output we see is obviously the the result of our own input,so being be careful about the selection of colors is upon our wisdom and insight towards life .
Dear friends it is 12 am[noon] i just got back from kitchen after cooking chicken korma for the lunch and finishing my laundry. Sun is shining brightly with 37c temperature . Here in southern Pakistan rains are rare and as i spent my childhood and some of youth in northern native land so still MISS RAINS SOOOOOOO MUCH!
Today i am sharing some more very current blooms of my front yard and photo of my 27 year old sewing machine which was wedding gift by late mother .
Though i use it quite less now but used lot when i had only one son eldest one and had enough time to afford any kind of hobby .I sewed many suits for myself and later for younger kids .Unlike mom, sewing was never my passion but i did it just to check as if i could ? May be i could little bit .
Last day after almost 7 years i finished one of my own summer season 's lawn suit ,it took three days as whenever i got some free time i moved it forward ,finally ready,not good but wear able .
Pomegranate tree is sprinkling it's lovely red smiles in my yard
Noon flowers ,they closed their adorable pink eyes when sun sets.
White flower tree and sunflower
Sada Bahar flower which means forever flower
When sun showers it's rays my neem tree looks more gorgeous !
side view to share some yellow beauties!
Caught this naughty little friend last evening
By the Grace of God!!!
Two days ago when sky showed some enchanting mood!
See you soon friends, time to get up and run to prepare bread [roti] for lunch as they are about to get back .
Take great care ,stay happy and positive to turn all in your favor .
God Bless You All!

Nice to know that someone else is also like sewing coz I also like sewing my stuff by myself some time... Anyway very interesting post...
ReplyDeleteLovely post with gorgeous flowers !
ReplyDeleteHave a nice day !

Your sewing is so nice and your flowers are so pretty! Makes me wish we didn't have such cold weather here where I live! We have little critters (the little animal that looks like a chipmunk) all over here too. Andrea
ReplyDeleteWhat beautiful blue cloth you chose for your sewing project! The outfit looks lovely!
ReplyDeleteYou sew very well from my point of view! Your garden is lovely and the food sounds good!
ReplyDeleteI love the colour of the clothes you made.
ReplyDeleteGreat photos of your garden, Baili!
I also love the color of ypur clothes and the flowers are so pretty☺
ReplyDeleteVery nice garden.
ReplyDeleteYou are making beuatiful clothes!
ReplyDeleteSo warm there, we are having here very cold nights and days.
Your suit is beautiful, how very clever of you to make it. I’ve never seen a pomegranate tree (only pomegranate fruits in the supermarket). I’ve never seen a Noon flower either. We have a similar flower in the UK which is called an Old-Fashioned Pink or Dianthus but the green parts are very different from what you show here. Is the creature a Chipmunk? We don’t get those in the UK either. All your plants and animals are so exotic, thank you for sharing the photographs. Have a lovely week.
ReplyDeleteI love your comparison of life to an outline of a picture that we need to fill in carefully with our choice of colours - that is so very true and I will think of it that way now too. Beautiful flowers and plants! And your suit is very pretty. I think you are being too modest about your sewing talent!
ReplyDeleteYour colors are lovely as well as your results from the sewing machine. I have no patience with sewing but wish I did. My mother made most of my clothes when I was a child.
ReplyDeleteThis sentence really captured me, Baili: "As we all get this painting of life only as a outline and all that we put in it to make it Meaningful, Unique and Beautiful is our OWN CHOICE." This is a beautiful analogy for the great mysteries of fate and free choice. I tend to color outside the lines sometimes. because I like to challenge conventions, especially when it comes to women's rights. Never-the-less, I love my husband and home and derive great happiness from both.
ReplyDeleteI think the outfit you made is lovely ~ the vibrant colors match your vibrant personality and spirit.
I enjoyed the photos of your garden, and I spotted a number of familiar ones. Your "noon" flowers I think are a small carnation that my family calls "pinks." And surely your "white flower tree" is a variety of plumeria. I love the glorious scent of plumeria, and how cool a plumeria lei feels against my skin.
Happy cooking, my friend. Later today I'm going to make minestrone soup from scratch with lots of fresh veggies I bought at the grocery store yesterday. I've never made minestrone soup before, and I am quite excited about attempting it.
Wishing you God's blessing's, my friend! Sending you a big hug!
What a lovely post, I really enjoyed reading it and looking at your photo's ... the flowers are so colourful.
ReplyDeleteThat looks a great sewing machine, me dear mum had one ... but I was never that good at sewing, ok at sewing buttons on or taking up hems, but nothing too complicated.
Have a good week
All the best Jan
Great metaphor with how we put our lives together with colors.
ReplyDeleteYour front yard is blooming nicely. I was wondering, does the squirrel speak Urdu? (hee hee)
ReplyDeleteBe blessed
Some of the flowers you show are similar to what we had at our last house in central Florida.
ReplyDeleteThe yellow and white one we call plumeria. They are SO pretty!
Being an artist I really loved your words about paintings of life! Love the paintings of your amazing blooms. And what a great machine! I love it.
ReplyDeleteI love your clothing. What a beautiful colour! And your blooms are really lovely. Nothing here yet, although the tulips have begun to grow.
ReplyDeleteYou have a very nice garden. The squirrel is a welcome visitor.
ReplyDeleteLove your pretty sewing machine and dress, Baili! So many wonderful flowers in your garden and a sweet little visitor. A lovely visit - wish we could have tea together! Sending hugs xo Karen
ReplyDeleteThis is a wonderful and and the flowers are wonderful. It is finally warming up here in New York and we will have some flowers in a few weeks.
ReplyDeleteIt is very impressive that you finished a seven year sewing project.
Interesting post my dear, thank you for sharing :-)
ReplyDeleteOh, your garden is so lovely! And the clothes you sewed are beautiful! I like that shade of blue. Your sewing machine looks very nice. I have an old sewing machine as well. It used to be my grandmother's. She got it when she was a young girl, it is more than 70 years old now. I grew up next to it, watching as my mama was working. (I called my grandmother “mama”.)
ReplyDeleteI hope you have a wonderful week!
Cute creature in your garden, we don't have them here.
ReplyDeleteTalking about your garden, the flowers are every so pretty.
Like you sewing machine. I used to sew but not these days, it's rare if I do as clothes are cheaper to buy than buy the material to sew.
Many of the blooms in your yard, Baili, are similar to onces we have seen in our yards, but with different names. I also liked the comparison of painting our lives with colors. And, your sewing is better than mine, as I have no machine and no skills. Your suit look lovely and comfortable.
ReplyDeleteHi Baili! :))) Just wanted to see your blog, we are so far away from each other, but it's so nice to see we still have things in common. I love to sew, though back in 1995 when I got my first two puppies, they used my patterns as a chew toy lol...I'm still rebuilding! Your pomegranate tree is beautiful! Your flowers too. I have a little sneaky squirrel who eats off our bird feeder, I hope he stays away from my garden this summer! :)
ReplyDeletethanks baili, your posts are always so encouraging and uplifting. your backyard blooms are so beautiful, it is always nice to look out the window and see such beauty!!
ReplyDeleteyou sewing project is very nice, i like the colors. i like to sew but don't make time for it often enough!!
Hello Baili :)
ReplyDeleteI'm so happy to "meet" you and thank you so much for your comment.
Your yard is beautiful and so are your words. I had to look up chicken karma and it looks delicious! I'll be making it soon :)
rue
so many lovely flowers!
ReplyDeleteI used to sew my own dresses but now only use my sewing machine for mending and patchworks. Love the beautiful flowers from your garden and the little squirrel visitor. God is good!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful post! Beautiful writing! I love your outfit and I love your pictures! Big Hugs!
ReplyDeleteYour suit look lovely and comfortable.
