I Know!

I so know that I have been so slacking in my blog posts..
not that I think anyone is really reading it anyway.. but
I just keep plugging along with it, because God is teaching me how to not get discouraged and to keep going with things in my heart that I want to do and not give up and quit when I don't get a response that I want.



Usually I will get discouraged and just stop or delete .. this time I'm not doing that.

But really, I just get busy with other things and this always seems to get forgotten, and it has to be because of that reason, that I just think its a waste of my time, but its not.. I'm learning new things and I enjoy it.

Well, since my last post, I have finished a scarf that I knitted and I have re-started a baby blanket.

I love my knifty knitter knitting looms, once you get the hang of the stitches, the process goes really fast and you can finish a blanket in just days.

I am posting a pic of the scarf below.. I think its awesome, the best part about it is the satisfaction that I get knowing that I made that!!

I'm telling ya, if you ever wanted to knit or crochet but were completely intimidated by it, go get yourself some looms, its easy and fun and very therapeutic.. LOL

I can't wait to finish my baby blankets and then I really can't wait until I have a bunch of them to bring to the hospital! Sometimes I think though I should be making baby quilts and not knitting. And that could be why I just haven't finished a baby blanket yet!!

I pray that the Lord really just blesses that ministry that he has put on my heart.


I also designed the wall mural for our children's program room at church.

I'm so excited that it was accepted, that makes me feel really good about my work and gives me more motivation to keep going!

The challenge now, will be to make that little piece of art, a wall mural!!


I'm a bit intimidated by the thought, the wall is very big!!
This is very new territory for me.

So this is my design piece:




This is just basically a rough draft of what will go on the wall, I already have more ideas to add to this.. so excited to get started..

and here is my beautiful scarf! It came out almost perfect!! Just like if I would have bought it in the store, but its better cause, I MADE IT! I love making things!

Well until next time,

God Bless
