Tokyo international quilt show

I received my postcard today from the Tokyo quiltshow,  noting on which quilt the  block I submitted will appear. :)  I am so Excited!

 now...if only I could go:D but I am thrilled the block is there.

queeniepatch is where I first learned of the NHK quilt festival and that anyone can send in a quilt block to be added to the charity quilts - please read about it, and join in next year 2015!

sayonara first imac

Two weeks ago our dear 2004 imac was shut down...and did not wake up.  FROM January 2004, until the end of November 2014, it was used every single day....went through a lot  with us, and navigated the Web even though it was no longer supported by browsers.

I truly thank GOD for its continued use all these years.

Now we are using a tablet in the meantime...an android...I miss mac os :(  but I do get to use This!  Hooray!

So just updating the blog with this news...cannot upload photos etc without a computer so we will just wait :)
Continuing to praise  GOD for who HE is

Love to all my blog friends!

Colors of Christmas Wrap

the Colors of Christmas Wrap!  I crocheted and designed it myself...or rather, using what my heavenly Father provided and gave me - He maketh my fingers to move for His glory.  There are more photos on ravelry if anyone is interested :)

I received the following in a newsletter and want to share it here:

There are things to do tomorrow and the next day and

the next, but we can’t do them until we get there.

Worry is borrowing tomorrow’s troubles. The only time

we can really live and be faithful to God is right now. If

we are faithful each moment as we live, we will always be

faithful until He comes. I need this divine truth as much

as you do. Why waste today worrying about tomorrow

and miss the opportunities we have serve the Lord now?

Jesus said, “But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his

righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.

Take therefore no thought for the morrow: for the morrow shall

take thought for the things of itself. Sufficient unto the day is the

evil thereof” (Matthew 6:33-34).

the above is from Milestone Ministries

nearing the finish

Hello!  my!! these few months have flown, so  I am determined to press on again with blog posts!

I have been crocheting several items, needle felting a bit, landscaping and gardening (outside of course), and finishing up this year's crazy quilt journal project!!  it is a bday present for my dear daughter, so it must be finished speedily!

Will be posting the oct and nov blocks soon, but here is a taste of december -
 I  drew a dachshund riding a horse and embroidered it :)

more to follow!

we can't pay, so He paid for us - will you accept His payment so that you may have life, and be reconciled to the Father? That is the choice - please do not refuse so great a salvation.
