Good morning!
Reminisce
of days gone by when laughter filled quilting bees were a treasured outing
filled with chatter, decadent dainties and a great sense of accomplishment at
the end of the day! Little girls admiring beautiful hand-stitched quilts coming
together under the direction of the hands of skillful seamstresses, as they
imagine the day that they too will learn the secrets of perfect stitching and
delicate embroidery. Let your mind wander back the days when pretty
hand-stitched blankets lined Grandma’s clothes line, flapping in the breeze as
daisies danced gently in the background! Join us as we remember simpler times
with the old fashioned Patchwork Daisy Collection! Immerse yourself in designer
papers filled with soft and gentle hues reminiscent of purple lavender filled fields,
warm sunshine yellows, clear sky blues, and beautiful wildflower pinks. Feel
the gentle warmth of a hand stitched quilt as you are embraced by dainty
illustrations of tranquil florals, decorative patterns and delicate patchwork
panels similar to those on Grandma’s finest coverlet! A wonderful array of beautifully
detailed cling stamps, along with coordinating dies provide endless “embroidered
and quilted” embellishments to adorn all of your handcrafted projects…from dainty
daisy florals delicately illustrated, appearing to have been cut from decorative
quilt blocks and then hand-stitched, to a wonderful assortment of graceful eyelet
trim borders perfectly designed for “finishing” your handcrafted projects! The
perfect assembling of decorative papers, clings stamps and coordinating dies to
blend with the previously released Buttons and Blooms Collection! So, gather
your crafty friends around the kitchen table…it’s time to laugh, snack, reminisce,
and show off your creative handiwork!

Galatians 6:7-11
7 Don’t be misled—you cannot mock the justice of God. You will always harvest what you plant. 8 Those who live only to satisfy their own sinful nature will harvest decay and death from that sinful nature. But those who live to please the Spirit will harvest everlasting life from the Spirit.
9 So let’s not get tired of doing what is good. At just the right time we will reap a harvest of blessing if we don’t give up. 10 Therefore, whenever we have the opportunity, we should do good to everyone—especially to those in the family of faith.
