"GIVE" and receive...

There is nothing quite as lovely as being able to 'give' and this week's Shabby Roses Churn Dash block celebrates giving...


You'll find the pattern HERE.


Some extra wonderful 'giving' happened in our family this week.
My precious middle daughter gave birth to her first child, a sweet little girl of her very own...


As I've shared previously most of our family are very private so no more information than this to share, but I would ask for your prayers of blessing and praise for this new life, and also for my darling daughter as she begins the next stage of life as a mummy. I'm so proud of her! 
It may be years before I get to see or hold this little angel of hers, but one thing I can do every single day is pray for her...and make lots of pretty things that Mr Postie will deliver for me. x


Have a lovely weekend, everyone!
I'm continuing to detox my body and stitch more new Christmas designs for a September pattern release...


hugs

Love the blues in that sneak peek of the design you are doing. I must have missed a Churn Dash, I think I only have 3. I'll have to go get the missing one, too! Congratulations on the grandbaby. She's a cutie, and I'm glad we get to see one picture of her, at least. I know an opportunity will arise for you to see her. Maybe someone where your daughter lives would love to have the famous Jenny of Elefantz to teach a class there!

Sweet. That head of hair on the baby reminds me of my firstborn. The nurse said my daughter had a head of wild hair just like her momma! It was an apt description!

Gillie said...

Oh Jenny! Praying not as long as you think before you get to cuddle her. Very pretty block.

barcord said...
