“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

What does a quilter do with a snow day?

Why, this of course !
22 1/2 inches square
I woke up to our second little snow covering of this winter,....

so I sat down to organize my leftover strips that I accumulated while making the "Scrappy Tripalong" top.  I ran across these pink triangles that were left from a baby quilt that I made last year.  Stars came into my eyes..........well, one star anyway, and I spent the remainder of the day putting together this one little ol' 22 1/2 inch wallhanging top !

But I like it, and it entertained me for the day, and it didn't cost me anything in fabric purchases........so it's all good, right?

And back to the snow.........most of it melted today, which is probably why I was able to get a small load of laundry dry on the clothesline in the back yard.  Although.........the pockets of a pair of jeans were FROZEN when I brought them in around 4 p.m.  !

    Your star is beautiful! Sew bright and cheerful! I love your kitty on the Trip Along!

    I admire the way you use what you have. I'm trying to do more of that too.

    I love the smell of clothes dried on the line! I miss that. Our oldest son has asthma, and everything has to be run through the dryer. Thanks for being such a sweet soul!
