January 28th: Kindness Quilt Panic part 1

Yesterday, I was grateful for my mother for coming over to save the day after a minor mishap with my STUPID sewing machine.  She came over in her pjs and (after some eye rolling) helped me fix it and (almost) finish the front panel of the Kindness Quilt I’m making for my students in honor of Kindness month…

Here’s what it looked like yesterday:

January 22nd: Making Things

I make things

Today I am grateful for my craftyness.  I am thankful that both of parents taught me, through example, to experiment and be as creative as possible.  From crochet to painting, from decorating to sewing, from jewelry making to photography and cross stitch to quilting… I like to make things… Lots of things.  It makes me happy and gives me peace.

In fact… I’m going to go crochet myself an ear warmer right now… G’Night 😉

Check out a previous article I wrote about my parents and how they’ve inspired me:
