Another Finished Project
These are the first stitches to this last towel for this set of gifts. I have never taken as many photos while stitching as I have lately for these pieces for myself to see how far each day to see what I accomplished. Each stitch is a form of serenity for me knowing it will…

God Laughing At My Plans
For weeks I have had several projects I wanted to have done for this past weekend. Very few things happened the way I had planned. My dry eye fiasco a month ago then getting sick from the dog dander and then my accident. I am dumbfounded again and again as I realize God’s plans usually…
