good morning out there y’all ~

i had a super fun day this past saturday with a few friends, and sisters… {and a very, very cute little boy!} sewing lap quilts for the chouteau county cancer support group this past saturday.

we got to set up {far and wide!} lol ~ in our highwood faith community church sanctuary, and had ourselves a good ol’ time!  i helped piece blocks, and learned a new trick {for me} on sewing up pinwheel blocks.  so cool!  i’ve always wanted to be a better “piecer” and so saturday gave me that opportunity to learn:












my first pinwheel block above.  not bad… always room for improvement, so i’m practicing again… cuz i am hooked!  and that little seven-month old boy?  of course, i got to ‘help’ entertain him, and he loved sitting in my lap, playing on the sewing machine!  what a happy little boy.  we played peek a boo with fabric swatches, and enjoyed his sweet smile and laughter… and we christened fabric with his giggles and drool!!  what a gift.

what a great time together.  thank you Lord. we pray the work of our hands and hearts to bless others, to your glory. amen.

soli deo gloria
