Like a lot of people I subscribe to some blogs either in the WordPress Reader or via email, sometimes both. Somehow I've subscribed twice to one blog, which still has me puzzled. One day I'll deal with it, but not today. Beauty Beyond Bones posted Like a Woman Scorned. I may not have had a … Continue reading Sharing a couple of blogs

I thought I lost the words
I didn't. I haven't even misplaced them. Like some people I can read upside down and backwards. I can write, and quilt, words backwards. This might be one of those skills that allows me to be a fairly decent quilter. (And before you say anything I'm not seeking compliments on my quilting skills, promise.) I like … Continue reading I thought I lost the words
This is the moment
"Perhaps this is the moment for which you have been created" Esther 4:14 So yeah. This verse came up in my fb newsfeed recently. Once upon a time there was a magazine entitled "The Quilt Life" the premise being that quilting and life are so intertwined that we lead a Quilt Life. Each day there is … Continue reading This is the moment
Wait
Psalm 13: How long, LORD? Will you utterly forget me? How long will you hide your face from me? How long must I carry sorrow in my soul, grief in my heart day after day? How long will my enemy triumph over me? Look upon me, answer me, LORD, my God! Give light to my … Continue reading Wait
Whirling
Spring has sprung here in NY. https://www.instagram.com/p/BTcCrq_BF7z/?taken-by=terilucas Our dogwood is blooming, the hyacinths are about done, the hydrangeas and mountain laurel are starting to leaf out, the mocking birds and robins are nesting in the dogwood and arbor respectively. I've unintentionally witnessed sparrows mating by looking out the window at just the right moment. I … Continue reading Whirling
Baking & Creativity
Like many I have more than one creative outlet. Quilting is my passion, and I like to bake. There is something about the process of baking that helps clear my head, and get ready for the next thing. I get into baking with an ability to make a wide variety of items over the course … Continue reading Baking & Creativity
Moved to Tears
We are a one car family at the moment. It's a little challenging now and again, however we gotta do what we gotta do. Today, as of the moment of this writing, is Good Friday. One car, so walking to the local parish for the celebration of the Passion of our Lord. The walk was … Continue reading Moved to Tears
The Real Thing
One of my earliest memories of going to Church is way back in the early 70's we were in the choir loft - for what reason I'm not sure it may have been three little girls, or the Church was crowded, whatever. This particular morning during the homily the Priest, using a film projector, … Continue reading The Real Thing
Story Telling
Tonight as my sweetie read the pre-dinner Lenten reading my mind started writing a blog post on telling the story of who we are through our quilts. I tuned back in the as the reading connected the importance of place in our story and journey of faith. The Garden of Eden, The Garden of Gethsemene, … Continue reading Story Telling
Peeling the Layers Back
Luke 6 I went looking for this: Luke 6:38 "Give and gifts will be given to you; a good measure, packed together, shaken down, and overflowing, will be poured into your lap. For the measure with which you measure will in return be measured out to you.” Finding the rest of Luke 6 and oh so … Continue reading Peeling the Layers Back
