Saturday's Song: The Words I Would Say
If I could see you all face to face, these are the words I would say!
You are going to do great things, believe in God and in yourself!
If I could see you all face to face, these are the words I would say!
You are going to do great things, believe in God and in yourself!
God bless you all as you go forth as Abraham did!
Slow Stitching
Today I'll be working on Prayer Shawl #10.
This one is going to an elderly, dear friend of mine who is currently feeling the adverse effect of chemotherapy. Just the same, her spirits have been buoyed up as God has moved to allow her daughter to move back to our fair city!
I'll also be working on my Grandmother's Flower Garden and Yo-Yo Quilt.

Very pretty shawl. Your new yarn will make something wonderful. Any plans for it?
ReplyDeleteThank you! Yes....I'm thinking a colorful baby afghan or another shawl. I have to find patterns to see exactly what I can make with it. Great question!
DeleteHope you got in lots of relaxing slow stitching today. The prayer shawl is very pretty. Congrats on finding time to stitch every day this week.
ReplyDeleteThank you! I did get some stitching time in. The shawl continues to grow and amaze me at how pretty it is coming out - such sparkly and pretty yarn makes it easy to make something pretty!
DeleteI have post-it notes with two of your versus that you embroidered! One is on my computer, one is in my bible a day reading. LOVE that project...even though I came here because I also loved your yo-yos. I'm going to stick around and follow your projects. LOVE them. Have a great week.
ReplyDeleteOh wow! Kathy! That's so neat that you have two of those verses on post-its! Great minds think alike! Thank you for sticking around! That made me smile today! :)
DeleteThank you for the song and det text for Hebrews: " By faith..." You have many nice handycraft that you are working on. Great to see the Bible verses be embroidered. The prayer shawl looks nice, and both that and the jojo quilt grow. The new yarn has beautiful! colours. :-)
ReplyDeleteThank you for your kind comments! You know, I hand write a verse a day and post it on my Instagram account (https://www.instagram.com/miaismine22/). Lately it's been chapter 11 of Hebrews. It's amazing how much that has been ministering to me! Yes, many projects few finishes....but, boy! I'm having so much fun! :) Thank you for your sweet comments!
DeleteI love the yo-yos! That's going to make a really cute quilt..
ReplyDeleteThank you, Robin! Between the yo-yo quilt and the hexagon quilt, I'm enjoying quite a bit of hand stitching!
DeleteAs always, thank you for your encouraging words. It is always best to rely on God and know that he will not mislead us. <3
ReplyDeleteI just LOVE your Grandmothers flower garden and yoyo quilt!! WOW!!
Thank you, Amy! They've been a few years in the making, but I have a gentle goal of finishing the GFG this year....we'll see!
