“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

Still waiting....

Yes, I'm still waiting to get positive word that I've been hired, but I'm not unproductive in the meantime.
 Yesterday, I pushed all the furniture back against the walls and set up  my small quilting frame in the living room to baste a baby quilt.  This one was made from triangles that I found among the many scraps that Jodie Ann sent to me a couple of months ago.
I'd really like to get it quilted today, so I need to not be a lump on a log and get myself moving right away.  I need to set up an additional table in my sewing room to make it easier to manage the quilt, although it's not big.

Also yesterday, I managed to get the front yard mowed.  It's quite a job to keep up with all of the mowing on this acre and a third, by myself.  I generally do the front about twice before I have done the back.  The back is a bit hilly and scraggly, so it can be let go longer.  But I need to do it soon.

    During the winter, my mom, a farm women, would take over the living room with her quilt stretchers. We would have to put it away each night so we could walk through the room with company coming. Your quilts are always so great to see.
