showing a finish

handmade shawl/pattern by Michele DuNaier

I have been working on a crochet shawl in May, and it is now finished and blocked....

 the lace/eyelet edging is done in two layers....

there has been a lot going on ....all is well..and at the same time, depending on God every moment of every day, is something that is a learning process, no?

Being confident of this very thing, that he which hath begun a good work in you will perform it until the day of Jesus Christ: philippians 1:6

Now the God of peace, that brought again from the dead our Lord Jesus, that great shepherd of the sheep, through the blood of the everlasting covenant,
Make you perfect in every good work to do his will, working in you that which is wellpleasing in his sight, through Jesus Christ; to whom be glory for ever and ever. Amen. hebrews 13:21-22

Now our Lord Jesus Christ himself, and God, even our Father, which hath loved us, and hath given us everlasting consolation and good hope through grace,Comfort your hearts, and stablish you in every good word and work. 2 thessalonians 2:16-17

just think of it - Our Lord Jesus HIMSELF! and God even our Father! has given us everlasting consolation AND good hope through grace AND shall comfort our hearts AND establish us in every good word and work!  AND hath loved us...He loves us

First Class

color work - first try

I have begun a wonderful class online - very excited ;
and it has begun with a bit of color exploration - this exercise has helped with discipline , as I easily get distracted with images, colors, etc.

what is bursting from my heart, is how thankful I am to see color - that is first and foremost.....and that there even is color!

And, of course, the color is in the Light - not in the image, or even in the flower or tree - it is in the Light...how it is refracted, absorbed, reflected, etc. -

which is why rainbows are so extraordinary, and fun.

For God, who commanded the light to shine out of darkness, 
hath shined in our hearts, to give the light 
of the knowledge 
of the glory 
of God 
in the face of Jesus Christ. 2 corinthians 4:6

next up TAST continues! I am catching up!
