“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

Walking foot

I received my new Brother open-toed walking foot a few days ago, and have finally gotten a chance to try it out a bit today.   I'll share the results in a day or two if finished, but I'm very pleased with the visibility that this foot affords.  I have felt some grinding or something, though, and am wondering if it is possible to oil this foot somewhere.  I haven't tried yet, as the feeling comes and goes, and I've wanted to continue quilting, and not have to stop for the oil to be 'sewn' out of the foot.

Tonight is a soup dinner at the church, so I will close for now, and get back here another time.   Today has been a beautiful sunny day, with a cold wind in the morning, and beautiful 60+ degrees in the afternoon.  

We had a handyman come and replace some torn out shingles on the roof today.   I hope that the repair lasts for a long time.  I have gotten to dreading windstorms, as we always lose pieces of shingles !

  1. We had warm sunshine today but yesterday was miserably cold/windy/rainy. Your soup supper sounds delicious. Hope the roof repairs will hold for a long time.
