A New Year

Hello.  A new year with new ideas and new goals!  My first and most important goal is to live each day for Jesus.  This means giving my plans to Him so my work will be what He wants me to do.  So I hope each day will be a blessing to others.  The New Testament is where I'm reading for daily devotions.  I have lots of journals which I plan to use for copying verses or recording thoughts.  And a day is never complete without prayer:)

Regarding my sewing/knitting goals I am two blocks away from having enough blocks to make a small quilt.  Yea!!  I have not decided how I will quilt it.  Maybe I will investigate how much it would cost for having it done!  I also have a knitting project that I started last year and hope to finish this year.  I'm still enjoying making photo cards or using the Silhouette Portrait for some great paper cards. I'm thankful to have a printer that uses generic ink so I can print lots!

Here is the latest quilt block (12 inch):






One new thing I want to do on my blog is write briefly about online stores or blogs that interest me. Perhaps they might interest you too.  A favorite online store I really like is PurlSoHo https://www.purlsoho.com.  They have lovely yarn, lots of free patterns, and just interesting things for sale.  It is a good place to get some ideas for a project

May 2018 be a year with many opportunities and may we all keep focused on what is important! Have a good day with at least a bit of sewing or knitting!
