“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

Closing in on a finish !

I can't believe it, but I quilted that ~~leaf quilt~~ TREE QUILT , last night, starting around 6:30 p.m. I meant to just sit down and do a couple of organic wavy-line rows across the quilt. But I didn't like the looks of that, so I thought that I would just do a sample of meandering across one or two of the blocks.

Well, it's hard to stop at that. So I kept going, but boy did I HATE quilting the most interior blocks of the quilt. But I prayed, and stayed at it, and , I can't believe it, .......I FINISHED THE ENTIRE QUILT. Praise be to GOD, because I was so frustrated and jumpy from all the tugging and pulling and trying not to run over a stitching line or make them too far apart......and I promised I'd give HIM the glory if it came out well..............and I think that it is going to FOR SURE !

I'm not ready to post
