“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

16-patch quilting has begun !

I've begun the hand-quilting on the Sixteen-Patch quilt, and I am enjoying these snatched hours of crafting pleasure.  I'm not worrying about the size of the stitches......this quilt is to ENJOY the process, and the product !


UPDATE:  Today at work, I received a "happy to help" pin, an acknowledgement of a job well done !

I AM SO BLESSED !

    Hi Dolly, that quilt is gorgeous. I enjoy hand quilting too and like to have one to quilt on during the winter. I have gotten rid of my quilting frame and enjoy using a hand held hoop. That way I can quilt in the evenings watching TV and keep warm under the quilt as I work :)
    Happy quilting.
    Connie :)

    Just like any artist, there isn't work when the creation of piece is so beautiful.
