“I have given skill to all the skillful, so that they may make all that I have commanded you. “ Exodus 31:6


“O Thou who art the all pervading glory of the world, we bless Thee for the power of beauty to gladden our hearts.
We praise Thee that even the least of us may feel a thrill of the creative joy when we give form and substance to our thoughts and, beholding our handiwork, find it good and fair. “.
Walter Rauschenbusch

"Come, and listen, all you who fear God; let me tell you what He has done for me.
I cried out to Him with my mouth; His praise was on my tongue.
If I had cherished sin in my heart, the LORD woud not have listened and heard my voice in prayer.
Praise be to God, Who has not rejected my prayer or withheld His love from me!" Psalm 66:16-20

Do you know anybody......

....who gets a wonderful package like this when they're supposed to be receiving a commission work?


My gal, Jodie, sent me my latest project, ......... it's gonna look sumpin' like this....
1st quilt--Robyn Pandolph's Christmas Quilt (FolkArt Collection) 
2nd quilt--changes made to accommodate larger bed (red vertical sashing added)
and she just happened to throw in a few goodies and a whole separate shipment of books, just for fun !

















So I'd better do somethin' about this............














Which is slowly starting to look like this........
You know, the whole idea behind these quilts is to use a layer cake of 10 inch squares, so that you don't make a big mess, or have to pull out half of your fabric stash to make a quilt.  And someday, I hope to make this quilt again in just that manner.  But for now, back I go, digging for gold !

  2. But how boring would that be not getting to pull out the fabrics and play with them, LOL! That is the fun of it, pull a bunch off the shelf, mix and match and cut.
