Weaving Gods Word Into Our Lives: Yippeeeee!

Yippeeeee!

Today I was pleasantly surprised to find in my email box or mail box or hmmmm how do you say the place you receive your email. Ok my inbox LOL!! I may need a little more coffee, but I won a 15$ gift certificate to Sewzannes. They sell really nice knit fabric that I have been using to make my daughters clothes out of.
Now I just have to think of what I want to make with the the fabric I choose.

I had a Great Mother's Day I think my husband over pampered me but that is because he will be traveling the next few weeks. He will be off to Japan (hoping he can bring me back some fabric!) and Korea ...and Singapore....and a several other countries which means he will probably need a week after he comes back to recover from the jet lag.
One of the pleasant things my husband did for me this weekend is he got me a nice little cabinet to store my sewing machine and all my supplies in. He got this on clearance because one of the knobs is missing. I never imagined that there could be something that could work out so well. The shelf on this unit is even the correct size to hold my finished scrapbooks. Aghhhh I love being organized! So Sunday evening I put on some classical music and began going through all my sewing notions and organizing all my thread. A rather pleasant way to end the week or begin it however you view Sunday!

"O, give thanks unto the Lord, for He is good; His love endures forever."
IChronicles 16:34

Oh, it is absolutely lovely! Your machine is very state of the art...it must a joy to sew with!

I am so glad that you had such a wonderful Mother's Day and that your move went well! It is so good to "see' you again.

I pray that your husband has a safe flight to Japan.

Many blessings dear friend,
