I know that some of you are dealing with deaths in the family, death of a beloved pet, or just with chronic health issues. Let's remember that life is short. Live it to the fullest, starting today. Remember to tell those you love, I love you. Live your life with passion. Live your life for God. Laugh at silly things. Just let loose and giggle! Forgive yourself and forgive others. And let go of all the baggage you are carting around....lighten your load.....stop dwelling on the past. Today...Just.start.living.life!

Have a wonderful weekend.

Growing up means....


Love Your Enemies …30"Give to everyone who asks of you, and whoever takes away what is yours, do not demand it back. 31"Treat others the same way you want them to treat you. 32"If you love those who love you, what credit is that to you? For even sinners love those who love them.

What Type of Fabric should I Use....

Tip: Learn the right type of fabric to use for your projects.

30-Minute Jacket


If you have limited time to sew, it's especially rewarding to create a garment you can wear right away. Made from just a rectangle of fabric, this three-step jacket can be made in 30 minutes.

This pattern is incredibly flexible. The fabric length determines the finished garment's total arm span and the fabric width determines the torso length. The measurements are easy to manipulate for different sizes. A shorter, narrower rectangle will produce shorter sleeves and jacket length. 

With such a simple design, the possibilities for fabric and embellishments are endless. The jacket shown here is unlined, and made from a chunky, colorful, woven silk and viscose fabric. For an easy embellishment, let the selvage become a trim across the back, neck, and shoulder, down the sleeve, and around the wrist. Hem the other three edges of the fabric. You can use appliqué, trapunto, patchwork, photo-transfer, blue printing, painting, stamping, stenciling, embroidery, or any embellishment technique to adorn this jacket.

The seams are lapped and topstitched together, so it's also easy to make a reversible jacket by lining the rectangle first. Since this jacket can be made to fit anyone, it makes a perfect gift. Thirty minutes isn't much of an investment for so many fashionable possibilities.

THE SERENITY PRAYER

GOD GRANT ME THE SERENITY
TO ACCEPT THE THINGS I CANNOT CHANGE;
COURAGE TO CHANGE THE THINGS I CAN;
AND WISDOM TO KNOW THE DIFFERENCE.

LIVING ONE DAY AT A TIME;
ENJOYING ONE MOMENT AT A TIME;
ACCEPTING HARDSHIPS AS THE PATHWAY TO PEACE;
TAKING, AS HE DID, THIS SINFUL WORLD
AS IT IS, NOT AS I WOULD HAVE IT;
TRUSTING THAT HE WILL MAKE ALL THINGS RIGHT
IF I SURRENDER TO HIS WILL;
THAT I MAY BE REASONABLY HAPPY IN THIS LIFE
AND SUPREMELY HAPPY WITH HIM
FOREVER IN THE NEXT.
AMEN.
