Over on TerifiCreations I've mentioned that I'd love to spend a day writing sensational, click-bait style headlines both for fun and the creative exercise it is. If I actually did this it would over time become part of the lexicon of my brain. I need to plan this day sometime soon for in and of … Continue reading When the Blaze Becomes Intense, but it’s not what I thought

A Faith in Quilting Post
Where is God leading?I do not know.For in this place, at this momentI revel in the unexpectedness of it allFor there are moments wherein I said Noand yet The Father waits for my returnheart in hand outstretched, Him hearing the faintsobbing, "it hurts" barely whisperedOnce consoled, experiencing the betternessof a kissed knee, running off joyfully,freely … Continue reading A Faith in Quilting Post
A different look
Sometime after Jen Fulwiler posted this video on Instagram I downloaded the Hallow app. Hang with me here friends this will have the Teri Lucas quilting winding thing happening. I'm still working my way through St. Francis de Sales Introduction to the Devout Life, sometimes I pause the reading because I need to think and … Continue reading A different look
Getting Unstuck
If you read TerifiCreations I shared a lot about Get Unstuck with Jen Fulwiler. The thing that was hardest for me but proved the most beautiful was accepting and asking for help. Even before Get Unstuck I'd made the decision to make a class this last week even knowing that I'd be taking two days … Continue reading Getting Unstuck
It’s Not All About Me
Like so many others who quilt or create there is a strange dichotomy lived wherein I want to both hide under the table and never have my work seen until I am a posthumous hit; but also have my work seen as though I'm dancing through a torrential storm with great glee, face up, pelleted … Continue reading It’s Not All About Me
An Oddly Titled Faith in Quilting Post
Good morning friends, it's been a while. Whew. My head is overfull of ideas and sometimes that makes it hard to get anything done. Seriously. I'd like to share with you an interview with Quilter on Fire. Brandy is a wonderful interviewer. I'm a quilter. Quilting, creativity is as much a part of my being … Continue reading An Oddly Titled Faith in Quilting Post
Chocolate Cake
The room, once a cafeteria filled with the smells of good food, and the laughter and conversation of people from all over the area on a spiritual pilgrimage, now filled with the books and other items too long on the gift shop shelves. Oh that sweet, somewhat musty scent of oldish wood, delicately balanced with … Continue reading Chocolate Cake
Writing While Annoyed
Sometimes I write while annoyed, frustrated, concerned, desiring to change the hearts and minds of those who annoyed me off enough to write whatever words currently flowing from brain to fingers. Because we all know I am practically perfect in every way. I started a post the other day that I *may* finish, however for … Continue reading Writing While Annoyed
Forty Days of Prayer for Quilters Day 39: Render
I am slowly sipping coffee, waiting the sublime moment when the space between my ears and my body are ready to greet the day with great gusto. One of many great oddities in being the chief creative weirdo is that if I am with a group of friends or other creative types in the morning … Continue reading Forty Days of Prayer for Quilters Day 39: Render
Forty Days of Prayer for Quilters Day 38: Come Holy Spirit
Every now and again I go through these periods of time when I experience deeply negative thoughts on repeat like an old vinyl reacord skipping. Please allow me to assure you this is wholly unpleasant, bleeds into other areas of my life, and is the cause of the prayer, "Lord take this from me, please!" … Continue reading Forty Days of Prayer for Quilters Day 38: Come Holy Spirit
