Welcome to ChitChat!

Good Friday morning everyone. I think I'm finally getting used to the time change and so are the dogs! DId a lot of stitching yesterday and today I will finish another page on "Lady". I've got my mojo back for this large project, but want to start the mermaid one. I want to get my housework finished early so I can stitch on this rainy fall day. It's been quite the week with a few ups and downs. Have a fabulous Friday!

Today is Friday ………………………….………………………. Good Morning, MJ 💕

To some who were confident of their own righteousness and looked down on everyone else, Jesus told this parable:
" Two men went up to the temple to pray, one a Pharisee and the other a tax collector. the Pharisee stood by himself and prayed: ' God, I thank you that I am not like the other people- robbers, evildoers, adulterers- or even like this tax collector. I fast twice a week and give a tenth of all I get.'
"But the tax collector stood at a distance. He would not even look up to heaven, but beat his breast and said, ' God have mercy on me, a sinner.'
" I tell you that this man, rather than the pother, went home justified before God. For all those who exalt themselves will be humbled, and those who humble themselves will be exalted."
Luke 18: 9-14 NIV

I was introduced to minky fabric a couple weeks ago and fell in love with it. I couldn't stop petting the fabric samples the rep handed me. So I got the idea to make an 8x10 comfort puff with minky on one side and quilting cotton on the other. I want to sew columns, stuff a row with polyfill, sew it closed, repeat until I get to the top. I would tuft each square with a 1/4" satin ribbon with the tails on the cotton side. Sooo comforting to pet, hug, rub the ribbon, or just have it in my lap. It will weigh a pound. I also want a matching weighted lap pad. If you didn't know, I'm autistic and adore soft and weighted things. I can't wait for my material to make the prototype set!

🎼Happy birthday to you, Happy birthday to you, Happy birthday, Sewn Blessings, Happy birthday to you🎶 🎂🎊🎉🎈🥳

Here is "Tender Loving Care" finished and framed! She took approximately 1 year to stitch. I get to keep her for 2 weeks, then she is a gift for my youngest daughter's 40th birthday. Where has the time gone??

Working on these 4 at the moment.
And the blue dragon I finished and mailed to a good friend.
