Are they jelly beans??!!

My sweet friend Fee sent me a parcel the other day, and inside was a surprise for me!
Ooooo, are they gourmet jelly beans??!!
My tastebuds were dancing! But then I took a closer look and removed the lid...
Ha ha!! Not jelly beans - better!! 
Twenty cotton reels in goregous colours! 
What a fantastic gift - thanks so much, Fee. 
You know, when I showed Blossom she thought the same as me...jelly beans. ;-)

I finished the fourth design for the magazine this morning. Yep, I am running close to the wire with this issue!
~Shabby Roses Candle-Mat~
I used more 80 year old lace...
Maybe an early Christmas project? :-)

The fifth "Promises & Borders" block is on my knee for stitching tonight. Loving the mother bird guarding her eggs, and another favourite Bible promise...
What is your favourite Bible verse or promise?

  4. one of my favorites is: psalm 121, especially verse 5, the text the pastor has used in church when we got married. (hope i used the right words in English, in Dutch is so much easier.) bye

  6. I love the promise Jer. 29:11 because we got that text of the Lord when our Son died, and it is on his grave too. This verse keeps me holding my head right up. because it are sure words of Hope and peace

  9. I'm with Michele Chitty. Phil 4:13. I can do all things through God who strengheth me. It helped me through many rough patches in my life. Love all your and Blossom's patterns. I try not to miss any and have made more than a dozen in the last couple of years. Keep up the good work. It blesses many people you will never even know.

  12. Psalm 92:12 - The righteous will flourish like a palm tree, they will grow like a cedar of Lebanon, planted in the house of the Lord.

    You're sure making pretty things.

It's always nice to receive feedback on a blog post, so *thank you* for taking time to comment!
I will try to reply via email unless you are a 'no reply blogger' which means you'll have to check for my reply in the comments. Of course, life is a rather hazardous activity, isn't it? So if I don't respond to your comment that's the reason why - life simply stepped in...
hugs
Jennifer
