“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

Yay SNOW ! ! !

I've been asking the LORD for one good snow that blows into every crevice, but leaves the roads clear for safe driving (cuz' we Southerners DO NOT know how to drive on snowy/icy roads !)  And HE delivered last night !


I love this kind of wet snow ........ beauty for an early morning, then gone before you have time to get tired of it !


Lottie was curious, so I took her out into the backyard on the leash.  She enjoys getting out there in harness.

I thought that I had all of the pieces cut for Jen's quilt-top, but after piecing a few sashes and trying a layout, I found that if I put green squares in the center of the green starpoints, the stars take over from the soft, gentle blocks of the quilt.
Instead, now, I think that I will put yellow in the center, so that there are only green star outlines, rather than solid stars.  I would prefer to keep it all muslin, but this is their choice, and I think it is going to be really pretty when finished......very traditional-looking.
