This has helped me hone my prayer life in … Continue reading In Some Ways

A Faith in Quilting Post
Alt Title: Active but not busy It's only taken a bit over thirty-two years of being in relationship with my Sweetie, and nearly thirty years of being married to him to come to the understanding that our thinking processes are different, compatible, but different. That we each think and act differently is both heartening and … Continue reading A Faith in Quilting Post
Kids are not the future Church; they are part of the Church – now
I'm going to come around to the title of this blog post in a moment and hopefully it'll all intertwine in a way that makes sense. I've been working on a quilt design in my head for a few months now, and it's actually made it to paper. Last night in my kitchen I saw … Continue reading Kids are not the future Church; they are part of the Church – now
Cultivate
I have a deep love of solid fabrics. Deep love. They are in artsy terms, the blank canvas of the quilting world and they pair well with my deep love of thread and creating imagery over the surface of said solid color. Black, blue and cream are the ones that made it to the bigger … Continue reading Cultivate
A wee bit Giddy
I have exactly zero pictures from this but good memories. I arrived home last night with some really delightful memories, some affirmed insight and with a deeper appreciation for how Our Father, through the gift of the Holy Spirit leads us. Saturday I flew out to California for a guild gig. My friend picked me … Continue reading A wee bit Giddy

Twenty-four Hours Early
Morning dawned bright and early, it was probably more overcast and breezy. I, did however, get up early like 4:30 am early. Sleep for women of a certain age can get sketchy and then there's the weird dreams wherein I wake up feeling as though the conversations last all night long. When the beep, beep, … Continue reading Twenty-four Hours Early
Asking for Help
I'm currently working on editing a video interview. A couple of months ago I knew how to add a couple of features and now, because of lack of practice, I don't remember. Thankfully I have a friend who will help me so I'll be back up and running fairly quickly. This is a good reminder … Continue reading Asking for Help
