Saturday's Song. Slow Stitching. Stash Report,

Saturday's Song:  Dream Small
The title sounds unusual, but it's so true!  Those "little" things we do every day, are huge!

Above all else, LORD, help us remember our lives, our work, our calling is in Your hands.  Amen.
Slow Stitching
 Today was an amazing birthday party for my husband.  So, tonight I'll be resting with some crocheting on my  Spring Granny Square Afghan

and Prayer Shawl #10.  
                                   

This yarn is a dream to work with and I love the colors!  I may add an edging to add some beads....

I sit on a swing and this is my view:

  3. Whoa, look at those days of stitching! 100% for you last week! If I had that nice a view for my stitching, I'd be out there every day, too. =) That yarn on your prayer shawl is beautiful stuff. Happy birthday to your husband! I like the song, and it's so true. We think we have to do huge things, but the small things ARE the huge things.

    1. Thank you! Yes, I love my backyard! It's small, but I like it. Yes! I love how you phrased it: "the small things ARE the huge things." That's worded so beautifully!

    1. He did - after a bit of drama! We now laugh and enjoy the memory! Thank you! I do love this shawl! I'm seriously considering adding beads to the edges to add weight and more "cuddleness"!

  5. Your prayer shawl is really coming along. I love the colours too. What a nice place to sit and crotchet.
