“Serve the LORD in sincerity and in truth... Choose you this day whom you will serve.
But as for me and my house, we will serve the LORD.”

Sewing

I have been wanting to learn to sew for some time now.  My ultimate goal is to quilt just like my grandmother.  She made each grandchild a quilt when they got married and I treasure mine.  Its this little piece of home I always have with me.  I've been putting it off for a while now because I had no sewing machine and really didn't want to spend the money to get started.  Not to mention I needed someone to sit down and really teach me what to do.  Well, to the rescue was my mother-in-law.  She came up this week and generously taught me to sew and got me set up with a few sewing basics that I'd need.  A huge thanks to my sister-in-law for letting me use her sewing machine until I get one of my own.  Yesterday I had my first lesson and we jumped right in with a project.  Below is the finished project.  I'm really proud of myself and looking forward to doing a lot more sewing.
