We make quilts at different times, for different reasons. Sometimes quilts are started and abandoned for reasons that are clear. Or not. Sometimes we know who our quilts are for - family members, friends, people suffering in some deep and profound way. Our skill set grows, we try new to us techniques, different colors. Subtly, … Continue reading A Quilt in a Week

Forty Days of Prayer for Quilters – Day 8
Breathing. Inhaling. Exhaling. Seeking. Finding. Drinking. Refreshing. Thinking. Wondering. Seeking. Listening. Hearing. Wandering. Reminder. Calling. Knowing. Feeling. Wondering. Pondering. Praying. Seeking. Asking. Wanting. Needing. Thanking. Thanking. Thanking. Over the last week or so while praying I hear the word "write", having no clear direction for where to go, what to write. This morning pen in … Continue reading Forty Days of Prayer for Quilters – Day 8

Gaudete!
Advent (the Church New Year) is a time of preparation: preparing our hearts, and our homes to make room for Jesus in our homes, and in our hearts. Mary deTurris Poust has a great reflection today on this, the third week of Advent, the week of the Rose candle, and the "O" antiphons, and the … Continue reading Gaudete!
all things work together
The readings for the Seventeenth Sunday in Ordinary Time remind me of quite a few songs from my Anabaptist days. So many tunes singing sweetly in my ear reminding me of God's love and providence. We know all things work together for good for those who love God - Romans 8:28 I'm going to pause … Continue reading all things work together
Sometimes
I miss listening to Faith in Culture Thursday on Busted Halo while driving home on. The Busted Halo crew, talk with listeners about where they see faith in music lyrics, television shows, books - that are not inherently faith based. These shows help merge those things in life which seem, on the surface, to live … Continue reading Sometimes
Deeper Peace
I spent a whole lot of Saturday in the sewing room working on a couple of projects. I fiddled around with a small piece for 1000 Postcards for Peace. Once I find the envelopes I need this, and two other pieces will go in the mail. There is something beautiful that comes from the making … Continue reading Deeper Peace
Prayer, and Praise
There are two thoughts vying for attention while trying to write this morning. One thought popped into my head when I saw a photo of double rainbow on a lake. It's so pretty. The group my Sweetie and I worked with required that we go on a prayer day once a month. This one night … Continue reading Prayer, and Praise
Conversations about Faith
Sometimes as I sit to write the words flow freely from my heart and mind to the keyboard, onto this page. I have an idea of where to go, not so much a clear path to get there. Occasionally the where I think this is going, and where I end up are incredibly different. … Continue reading Conversations about Faith
Sharing a couple of blogs
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
