Since you have accepted Christ Jesus as Lord, live in union with him. Keep your roots deep in him, build your lives on him, and become stronger in your faith, as you were taught. And be filled with thanksgiving. Colossians 2: 6-7 Good News Bible
Welcome to my patchwork journal. I enjoy expressing myself through fiber. Tiny pieces of vintage quilt blocks and fabric combined with hand stitches create my art. When not quilting I'm living a patchwork life. Always changing and helping to keep me young and on my toes. Join me in my experiences and thoughts.

Happy Thanksgiving
I have many blessings this year to be thankful for--family, friends, home, health--just to name a few. But, our special blessing that hubby and I are thankful for turns 9 months old tomorrow on Thanksgiving. Parker Scott came into our lives and each day with him is so special and we are so Thankful for the joy and happiness he gives us. Happy Thanksgiving and Happy Quilting

Sunday---Precious Promises
Do not judge others, and God will not judge you; do not condemn others, and God will not condemn you; forgive others, and God will forgive you. Give to others, and God will give to you. Indeed, you will receive a full measure, a generous helping, poured into your hands---all that you can hold. The measure you use for others is the one that God will use for you. Luke: 37-38 Good News Bible

Sunday---Precious Promises
Love must be completely sincere. Hate what is evil, hold on to what is good. Love one another warmly as Christian brothers, and be eager to show respect for one another. Work hard and do not be lazy. Serve the Lord with a heart full of devotion. Let your hope keep you joyful, be patient in your troubles, and pray at all times.
Romans 12: 9-12 Good News Bible

Bargain Price
The church bazaar and dinner is over. The food was wonderful and the whole cloth quilt has a new home. Our quilt sold for $375.00. Considering all the quilting that was put into this project, we quilters were hoping for more bidders and a higher price. But we were pleased with the outcome of our silent auction. The money we earned will go toward various mission projects in our area. Have a wonderful day and Happy Quilting!

All the Pretty Quilts
I attended a quilt show many months back and took some photos of ones that caught my eye. I was just cleaning up my camera and stumbled on them and realized I had not shared them with you. I neglected to get the names of the creators, but hope you enjoy them as much as I did.
This quilt was so bright and cheerful. Makes me ready for the season.
Beautiful workmanship
A nine-patch is always my favorite no matter the size.
Love sampler look
Fun and active quilt, so much to see in this quilt.
Nice country look.
Fun, Fun, Fun
Wonderful colors
Creative Wall hanging
It was nice for me to find these quilts on my camera. I have been in a quilting slump lately. Time has been one factor. Life has taken a turn that pulls me away from the machine or even handwork for other things. And arthritis is another thing. My hands have been dealing me a fit lately. I guess the winter weather that is headed our way is not helping. Anyway, woe is me. Hopefully I will get back to some quilt work soon---miss it. Have a great weekend and Happy Quilting!

To have faith is to be sure of the things we hope, for to be certain of the things we
cannot see.
