Saturday at the Sewing Machine

Hi everyone! I'm feeling even better today (thanks everyone who has wished me better) and I'm having an almost perfect day! I have the entire day free to sew! And, I'm able to be up for long periods of time! Woot! I am grateful! Yesterday I did a block for the Summer Celebration quilt. It's called Swamp Angel. Interesting name, right?

It's just 6 inches...a tiny block. I wish I knew the history of the names of some of these blocks. I also made the 7 tree blocks for this quilt. They are scattered all over the quilt. This Swamp Angel block has a little tree by it:

that I will add today. I made the trunks gray instead of brown. I don't want any dark brown in this quilt. Today I'm finishing an applique block for this quilt and doing some Farmer's Wife blocks. All day to sew...Heaven! Hope you are having a great Saturday and able to sew too...or shop or whatever makes you happy. Cheery wave! Bev

To All My Dogs Who Have Gone On Before Me

An Important Personal Message

My dear friends - Have you noticed that the world seems to be getting more and more evil and corrupt? Have you ever wondered, assuming that Revelations is true, where we are time-wise and what will happen in the last days? At the bottom of this page, there is a 7 minute video that has no narration, just Bible facts about the sequence of events and where we might be. Of course, some of you won't think this is important, some of you might look at the video to see what the Bible does say and some of you may be offended and unfollow me. I personally believe that time is short. We are at 30 seconds to midnight. Things are coming this year that will affect the USA. Watch or not. I mean no offense. If I believe there is something to warn you about and I don't do it, I will be held accountable. I care about what happens to all of us. In love!
