Sit and Sew Mystery #4



















Here's my most recent Sit and Sew project. I started it the end of November so decided I would use Christmas colors. It turned out pretty well considering the Mystery pattern was a Star. For now there aren't any new Mystery Quilts coming. That Friday night Sit and Sew has been turned in to a UFO get togeather. Thats great for me! I have more UFOS than I can think of.

A Little Feel Good Inspiration

DO IT AFRAID!

When God tells you he will be with you, that means no matter what the circumstances, everything will work out all right. That's a good reason to do whatever you are afraid of even though you are afraid --do it afraid!

"No man shall be able to stand before you all the days of your life. As I was with Moses, so I will be with you; I will not fail you or forsake you. --Joshua 1: 5

I was at the Dr's office the other day for a check up and saw this on a daily desk calender at the secretaries desk. How uplifting. So I asked her for a copy. It's always nice to find some little piece of inspiration to have handy on one of those crazy days. I have been collecting all kinds of wonderful quotes or thoughts and have them posted all around my desk at work.

Haven't been posting very much lately and started to wonder if blogging was for me. But I've been getting back to reading other's blogs and I see I'm not the only one that has been skipping days posting. I guess all the holiday hustle and bustle got to a lot of us. I was also very busy with all the year end bookkeeping for our business and the business my son just opened a few months ago. He has a restaurant-pool hall and it's doing pretty good. Just a down home place for people to relax. Except for me, another business to keep books for. Oh well, I'm happy to see it doing well.

I got to take a day off today. Yea!!!!!!! I did all the basic cleaning I always do and really rushed so I'd have time for myself this afternoon. Made chili in the crock pot so dinner's taken care of.
Got my blocks together from another sit and sew and now just have to put on the border. Then I'll be ready to post a photo. Now I'm gonna relax for about an hour till supper and do some crochet. I' m working on some log cabin squares(joined Log Cabin Fever) and some new and different granny's(so I'll have squares to post at the Granny Along). I've been wanting to try some different styles rather than just the basics like I've done in the past. I'm still working on my ripple-at least 2/3 done -- but I just don't want to work on it all the time. Got to have something new so I can go back and forth between projects. I'm sure I'm not the only one that does that.

Gonna go a crochet for a little while on some squares for new afghans.
