Since there is a very good chance that I'm the head of the "Slower than Molasses Quilters Club," it will be necessary for me to dig down into the archives and pull out a previous project from time to time to share here in Blogville USA; and today is one of those days :)
This little cutie was for Pastor Roband Wendy's baby boy back in 2006. It was made w/my all time favorite fabric ... flannel. Love, love, love that stuff, even here in South Florida :) I also used the "chenille by the inch,"which I highly recommend ... it's a lot of fun to work with!!!! If you double click on the photo, you'll see that the chenille by the inch is outlining all the squares, the stars and the moon :) This one was entitled "Reach for the Stars :)"
It's the one and only time that I sent a top out to be "quilted." Needless to say, as usual, I was running about 2 steps behind schedule!!!
"Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be terrified; do not be discouraged, for the LORD your God will be with you wherever you go.” (Joshua 1:19)
Married to my wonderful Husband, Gene, for 35 years with one beautiful Daughter, Michelle Darlene (Micki) in Heaven. Loving her and missing her every day since she left us 3-1/2 years ago. She courageously battled Crohn's Disease for 23 long years and she continues to inspire me each and every day. Gene has been battling severe multi-level spinal stenosis for 5 years now, but he's always in good spirits in spite of it. I was diagnosed with Triple Negative Breast Cancer on 7/9/10 and it's been one heck of a ride ever since. We learned that it had spread to my brain in September bringing me to Stage IV; and I had the amazing "Gamma Knife" procedure, along with a surgery to install a shunt in my brain. God is sooooooo good cuz He has surrounded us with an amazing amount of love and support from sooooooo many wonderful folks. We have a little 3 pound munchkin ... a little Yorkie named Dolly Darlene; and she basically rules our little castle. I'm a gal in love with Jesus and quilting is what keeps me sane in this journey that we call "life." It is truly my passion!!!
Cute--I love checking your blog
