Spring Sewing

I feel like the sun here on the east coast

is really strong. I have had to change the

fabric on my outdoor furniture every year.

I used to buy really nice expensive fabric,

but have learned the expensive stuff fades just

as fast as the cheap stuff does.

Here is the swing before...

nasty and faded

Chair cushions before...

Fabric I got for $2.50 /yard at Walmart

After...

After...

The dogs really like it!!!

Easter Gift

I received this cute Easter gift from

one of my clients. It's my first ever Easter gift.

I thought it was so cute so I'm sharing it with you.

It also had this great poem in it that I had

never heard before so I thought I'd

share that too

Jelly Bean Prayer:

Red is for the blood He gave

Green is for the grass He made

Yellow is for the sun so bright

Orange is for the edge of night

Black is for the sins we made

White is for the grace He gave

Purple is for His hour of sorrow

Pink is for our new tomorrow

Jelly beans are so yummy to eat,

It's a picture,a promise,a special treat,

To help us remember Jesus' work complete,

Gives us hope beyond any earthly sweet.

Happy Easter!
