Life, and of Course, Sewing ~

One month since I posted...and there has been some sewing mixed in with fun, work, and life.

  • Easy Street is fixed! ...haven't picked a border or backing yet....
 

  • Quick flannel baby blanket for a co-worker. Her little boy Hunter made his debut today!



  • I quilted and bound 2 table runners for my dear friend Ginny, but somehow only got a picture of the simple one...they both were reversible. Also made a pillowcase for her I Spy quilted last year ~



  • Sewing along with online friend Terry again. I hope to make a quilt, but wanted to try this in a table runner first. Need to pick a binding.

 quilted last night!
~ the back ~
  • Remember my checkerboard blocks back in November? Some have made it into a quilt for a wedding gift. Rajeana grew up with my dd Lydia, so a couple of the scrappy pieces are actually from Lydia's clothing of the past, I think 'Jeana recognized one of the pieces. The backing is made and this one is next on the frame....

  • My sweet honey is in the Philippines for a missions trip with the church. It's his 3rd time to go, he is so excited. I have a constant pang of missing my Larry, but it is a perfect reminder to lift the team in prayer.

  • Oh, and just before he left, he had to file for unemployment...work has slowed down at his job  :-(

  • I have found a bit of time to play with that new "toy", the Accuquilt Go!

  • Last, a late-posted photo of my sweet second graders in their Nativity program. They memorized and recited "Luke 2, The Christmas Story." 
 I love these kiddos! 


"He giveth power to the faint; and to them that have no might He increaseth strength. Even the youths shall faint and be weary, and the young men shall utterly fall: But they that wait upon the LORD shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint." Isaiah 40:29-31
