Sewing Kits for Queensland

Gum Tree designers are appealing for sewing kits for Australian crafters who have lost everything in the recent tragic floods. A sewing caddy, needlecase and pincushion plus scissors, thread and a fat quarter. Jenny would love to hear from you if you're able to help out.

Using my own sewing caddy as a pattern and some really stunning batik, I made this simple caddy plus some small items to pack inside. The needlecase is one of Heather's (Patchwork Heart) designs.

I hope it will bring a little joy to a fellow crafter.

Discovering the beauty of Prayer

"The greatest sale of self-help books takes place every year around the end of December and beginning of January. We see the new year as a time to turn over a new leaf, to make a new beginning. Our best intentions, and the books we buy, can easily become something of a reproach as the year progresses and we see ourselves making little progress. Perhaps we need to be careful about the scale against which we measure ourselves. Growing in patience, self-awareness and in proper love of oneself are tasks that deserve time – even if we cannot always measure or prove our progress. Allowing ourselves to be open to the work of God within us will remain a call to all of us during 2011. God won’t give up but waits for us to awaken to the wonder and joy of knowing ourselves to be always in the presence of God."
