Projects


Winter is a grand time for wooly projects.

Rug hooking is an old art, which paints a beautiful picture from strips of wool.
Heart art!
 Simple geometrics can delight the eye.
These hearts will eventually be framed or turned into a pillow.

Felted hearts are a sweet reminder of God's love for us.


  Extreme knitting needles with 30 strands of yarn, create this plush rug which is a real toe pleaser.

Felted soaps warm up bath time and exfoliate winter's dry skin.


This ruffle scarf cozies in around your neck and is right in style with crocheted flowers attached.




Felted coasters keep table tops clean and cocoa and coffee looking cozy!


Taking Pop's worn out cords, I created a pillow full of memories and hidden treasures
for when the grandkids come.
(A work in progress...photo to come.)

10 Traits of a Godly Man

Image
The birthday son on a scout campout with his 12 year old son in Minnesota. It was the birthday of one of our sons. As I was writing a prayer for him related to his character, I googled traits of a godly man. I sent him the one below. Next my mind wandered to so many godly men who are a blessing to my life and particularly an encouragement to my husband who is a full time pastor. I decided to take the time to send the article to them and pray for them. I prayed: I'm stopping to pray right now for the Lord to fill you with wisdom, grace, a faith that strengthens everyday, and Holy Spirit directed prayers that reveal the authority we have in Christ our Lord, in whose name I pray. When Googling scripture verses for godly men, these came up.  May the Lord stir your hearts today to encourage some men of faith. Be watchful, stand firm in the faith, act like men, be strong. 1 Corinthians 16:13 Therefore an overseer must be above reproach, the husband of one wife, sober-minded, self-contr...

Consecrate Your Home

Image
  My husband's grandfather and his great uncle built these two homes on their family farm in 1924. They are no longer in existence. The white farmhouse in the background was the first home on the property & was where my husband lived when he was born. Our hearts are breaking here in the south for so many who have lost so much due to Hurricane Helene. Sunday afternoon we huddled in our basement  as a tornado warning blared on our phones. W ell, truth be told my husband went out the door to look for a tornado, as our houseguests and I went to the basement. These physical storms are full of destruction, but there are equally as damaging spiritual storms that can destroy our homes, our families and our relationships.  In the Moving Mountains  book I have been referencing John Eldredge has written a "Prayer of Consecration for a Home." Prayer of Consecration for a Home   By John Eldredge “Father, thank you for the blessing and the provision of this home.   W...

She Fought the Good Fight

Image
February 27 Bible Gateway's verse yesterday was: This is how God showed his love among us: He sent his one and only Son into the world that we might live through him . 1 John 4:9 A fitting verse for the day my everyday friend, soul sister, monster of the faith and mischievous partner in crime, Kaye, left this world behind and headed to her heavenly home. My husband was able to be by her bedside and said he knew she heard the words of our faith that he shared. Her sweet daughter held the phone up to her ear so I could say good-bye and the brightest single star you have ever seen shown through my bedroom window as she exited this earth! Yesterday, my heart literally ached so badly that I told the Lord, "Take me too!" Wouldn't she have been surprised if I had snuck up on her in heaven and said, "Thought you were going somewhere without me, did ya." When we received the call she was ready to go, I called out to the Lord for comfort and He led me to the Bible Gat...
