Glory? Glory!
Glory! Glory! Glory! in the Highest, Highest! Glory! Glory! Glory! in the Highest Highest! This is the refrain running through my head this morning...from Fellowship Creative. I don't know why but I was also thinking about hair. Weird I know, right. Like most people my train of thought resembles more of a Harold and the … Continue reading Glory? Glory!
Better than
Amy Grant - Better than a Hallelujah Refrain: We pour our miseries God just hears a melody Beautiful the mess we are honest cries of a breaking heart better than a hallelujah About half of this song has been rattling through my head the last few days. Along with a comment at the end of … Continue reading Better than
untended
We've lived here for over 15 years. The summer after we moved in my sweetie discovered what we thought was a climbing rose in the back yard. We moved it. And by we I mean he moved it. My sweetie does the gardening around this place and I love him for it. We do have … Continue reading untended
We wouldn’t ask that of. . .
This spoke to my heart this morning. That kind of goes along with part of this. There are so many things right in Sarah Millican's response to all of the negative comments and attacks on her for what she was wearing.

I was particularly drawn in by the Psalms and the theme of joy and happiness threading through. It's Easter, we're supposed to be joyful, grateful, animated. The joy we experience … Continue reading

I … Continue reading on being picked
Thank you!
Psalm 138 I thank you, Lord, with all my heart; in the presence of the angels* to you I sing. I bow low toward your holy temple; I praise your name for your mercy and faithfulness. For you have exalted over all your name and your promise. 3On the day I cried out, you answered; … Continue reading Thank you!
Something beautiful
There is something beautiful in the quilting world that I am honored to be part of, something deep and holy. Something nurturing and giving. In 2 different schoolhouse presentations yesterday I was reminded of that beauty, that call to Holiness that we as quilters can be about. It's about giving quilters permission to do what … Continue reading Something beautiful
it’s all about taking steps
Here I am in Pittsburgh at Quilt Market for the first time ever. To say I'm excited is a wee bit of an understatement. Sometimes by Step - Rich Mullins came to mind as I reflected. It's fascinating thinking about faith and quilting and how I teach. It's all about the steps and being on … Continue reading it’s all about taking steps
