Saturday's Song. Slow Stitching. Stash Report.

Saturday's Song
Are you feeling under pressure lately?  Perhaps work issues?  family issues?  emotional issues?
This song tells how God He can make diamonds out of dust - the dust of our pain.  Jon Steingard does a great job of sharing the story behind this song.  

All I know is that diamonds are created under pressure - immense pressure.  
Pressure is something we are all familiar with.  Guess what?
We've all survived begin under great pressure - heck - some of us have even thrived!
We're being made into diamonds dear readers - we're being made into beautiful, precious, valued diamonds.

Slow Stitching
It has been a lovely day with friends and family.  There's been a wee bit of time for slow stitching, though!
I was able to write up and embroider a bit on my Still Stitching project.  
My Spring Granny Square Afghan got  a bit of attention today!  Finally!  
Tonight I hope to add the blue flower with with borders to begin the second row of my Yo-Yo Quilt.




Stash Report
My daughter found some more flannel for me!  This is great as it means more baby quilts for El Paso Children's Hospital!  

You know, I have been so blessed this week by giving someone a dream!  Part of her blessing was 14 yards of various types of fabric!  Yea!

  1. Sounds like a good week.
    Your blogger blog is the only one where I can comment. I wonder why that is?

  2. What a wonderful blessing of flannel for the baby quilts. That's a song I like a lot, so thanks for having it here to listen to as I read your blog post. =) Your yo-yo is moving along, and I really like that blue one.
