“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

Slowly but surely........

....work continues on this quilt top.  I've been piecing the lower section of the quilt in preparation of appliqueing the flowers to the lower left corner.

I may be the first person to hand-applique these flowers, but that's actually a more comfortable process for me than using a machine to do it.
I didn''t want to have to cut away the back layer behind these appliques, as the white fabric
is really loosely-woven and will probably fray like crazy.  But I can clearly see the dark green of the stem through
that yellow, so I think I'm going to HAVE to trim .
