From my Sweetie

My hubby brought these to brighten my day.

Health issues are getting in the way of blogging (and life) as I would like,

hope to be getting answer's soon as I have changed Dr.'s.

I still try and quilt on something everyday just to keep my spirits up.

Hope everyone is doing well?

Keep stitching

Merry Christmas!

MERRY CHRISTMAS

In time of trouble

In time of trouble, say,

“First, Lord you brought me here.  It is by your will Lord, I am in this strait place, in that I will rest.  

Next, “Lord, you will keep me here in your Love, and give me Grace in this trial to behave as your child.”  

Then say, 

Lord, you will make this trial a Blessing, Teaching me lessons you intend me to Learn, and working in me the Grace you mean to bestow.”  

And last, say, “In your good time Lord, you can bring me out again.  How and when, you know.”

Therefore, say,

 “I am here (1) by your appointment Lord,

(2) in your keeping. (3) under your training, (4) for your time.

AMEN

Mug Rug Swap, cont

I told you, I would be back today, that doesn't happen that often, LOL

So, here is my swap partners mug rugs

I just love how we all come up with different 

mug rugs, these will be used with love.  Did you notice the 

Keepsake Needle Card to the left?  Do you remember your grandma 

or mom having these, I do, and I still have some, and others I 

have collected over the years.  They use to be given out by stores our

grandmas and moms use to shop with the the stores names on them.

I love having tea when it is cool enough to have some, so I will enjoy 

my mug rugs with my tea.

Thank You, again Carmie.

I still have pictures to post of projects I will be teaching at Hobby Lobby,

so I will do that the next I come back to visit.  

Till then, Happy Stitching and Blessed Days,

RoseMary

Mug Rug Swap

Quilting Gallery and Little Green Cottage joined together to bring us 

Mug Rug Swap.

We were to make our rug mugs for our partner who lives in a different 

part of the country or in another country.  We were to email our new friend and

get to know them.  My partner is from Liberty Center, IN, pop, 100.  And I live 

in South Florida just north of Miami with a pop. of over 1 million.  I came from 

a small farming community of about 600, and that was in 1975.

Here was the start of my mug rugs, I love it when I go though the scrap 

basket and start pulling little pieces of fabric out.  This is why I save

all of my scraps, (Sam) some of them are very small in size.  

And here are the ones I finished.

A little different then the pattern, I put a bee instead of a butterfly,

and my house on the bottom is going the other way.

I will post my partners tomorrow after I take a picture of them.

Off to bed now.

I hope you have enjoyed the mug rugs,

RoseMary

Harvest Blessings!

I just finished my Harvest Blessings table mat, it has only taken, let me see, I moved to 

North Carolina in 2001, started and finished the hand work there, then moved to Ohio in 

2006, then to Virginia in 2013 and finally to Florida 2014,  somewhere around 13 years,

but it's done now.

 Never give up on getting things done, better late then never!

Just in time for the harvest season.

Matt 9:37-38

Blessings always,

Tea Cup Exchange Lost

My Tea cup that I sent out to my exchange friend was lost in the Miami mail somewhere!

I sent the cup and saucer in different boxes, I could not find one large enough for both to go in.

I didn't even take a picture of it, so sorry i didn't do that now.  I hope it will show up, along with

the history of it.

But here is the tablerunner and tea rugs, I made to go with it.

The tea cups and tea pot in the picture are my. 

See what my new friend Dolores from Anchorage, AK sent me for the 

Tea cup exchange in the last Post.

Till next time enjoy some tea with a friend,

RoseMary
