“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. “.

"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

Getting close !

I am SO VERY TIRED after spending hours at the sewing machine and at the ironing board and at the cutting table today !  

But all of my triangle units are pieced, pressed, trimmed and sashed.   Thank the good LORD for the strength to stick with it !   Monday is looking like either a doctor's appointment (eye check-up for hubby) or a snow day, so I don't know how much piecing I'll be able to get done that day.   But one more row assembly, plus adding a few rows together, and I AM DONE.
This picture looks confusing because I have pinned the quilt in progress SIDEWAYS to a design wall on one wall and a curtain on the adjoining wall.  Remember, my home is small and this quilt is growing to be RATHER LARGE !
I know, I know......it could be days, but I am seeing the light at the end of the tunnel.  For now I am just happy to have those 576 triangles DONE !

  1. Oh how I dislike triangles...but they are so worth the effort. I can't remember if I did that many triangles in a quilt, and to be honest, I don't want to know....

    The quilt is going to be beautiful!

  2. I know what you mean, I am getting slower with the quilt I am quilting right now.
    Your quilt is lovely and it will be worth it all when it is finished.
    We have rain today so far we have missed the snow.
