Have More Fun in 2014!

Thank  you Mary Englebright for your wonderful art!

Again…At the top of my list of….

things to do!

Have more fun!  Purposeful fun!  Lookin for it fun!

I'm making my fun list!

Reflecting on four fun things last year…in no order

I went to Paris with my sister, Kathy.

(that fun included fabric and classes)

I went to NYC with my daughter and two Granddaughters.

(that fun included three plays and a Ballet - no fabric)

I went on a road trip with my husband to Iowa.

(that fun included LOTS of fabric, fabric shops, museums of fabric and antique garments)

A trip to Cleveland to visit my sister.

(fun to sit and stitch with her!)

Things I want to do more of this coming year are:

1.  Have friends over for Tea and Stitching.

2.  Stitch more in front of the fire.

3.  Have more dinners with my kids.

4.  Go to more musical events and movies

5.  Stitch lovely baby gowns.

Oh, and for flexible goals?  I did get my first ever quilt basted and ready to quilt by the new year.   I love the way it looks and hope I don't mess it up with my abysmal quilting stitches.  But I am sure to get better if I …Practice!!

My cat is admiring it.

In the beginning!

You can do anything….one stitch at a time.

Finished and  all ready to quilt.

One stitch at a time.

(which is good advise for life living too.  One moment at a time)

Happy New Year to you all.

May the Lord bless and keep you safe in this coming year.

And may you have peace and love.

My New Year

by Mary Englebright

This year, my resolution is to ....

HAVE MORE FUN!

I must say this resolution has worked for me in the last few years.

my brown dog is always looking ahead to fun and interesting things

and....I resolve to look ahead instead of feeling bad about what I did not do.

I will also take  the time to daydream about happy days to come.

Read the Bible in a year.  Start today.  I will post the coming months.

And I resolve to dwell on "whatever is honorable, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is of good repute and excellent and worthy of praise."  Philippians 4:8

May the God of peace be with each of you in the coming year.

Love, Jeannie

The Year of 2012!

The New Year is like a Blank Sheet of paper....just waiting for your input!

"The Lord bless thee, 

and keep thee:

The Lord make His face shine 

upon thee, and be gracious

unto thee:

The Lord  lift up his 

countenance upon thee,

and give thee peace."

Numbers 6:24-26

May the coming year bring you Peace, Joy and Plenty.
