Birds of a feather….

Do they really flock together?  This is a camouflage  appliquéd turkey that was designed for a little boy named Sam.  Per request, his body was made in orange and his feathers were made using different camouflage fabric.  He is just sew cute, don’t you think.  This is great not only for the upcoming Thanksgiving holiday, but also hunting season.  It really is just “all boy”.  My son advised me that I had to make him one so he could wear it hunting. 

Speaking of camouflage, let’s hope your spiritual walk is not.  “ You are the light of the world-like a city on a mountain, glowing in the night for all to see.  Don’t hide your light under a basket!  Instead, put it on a stand and let it shine for all.  In the same way, let your good deeds shine out for all to see, so that everyone will praise your heavenly Father.”  Matthew 5:14-16

Who Dat?

I know this slogan is just for the New Orleans Saints, however I thought it would fit for my cute owl.  She is an appliquéd owl made with hot pink and lime green material.  This shirt was a request for a little girl who loves owls.  The mom was very specific on colors and ask for the “h” to be put on her.

 

I have been very busy the last two weeks.  I have sewn four shirts, embroidered two heavy jackets with names and have worked on some canvas bags for the dance studio.  I have been please so far with the exception of one shirt.  I guess I’m not perfect. LOL!  I do make mistakes!

I am glad to see “Halloween” go!  I have really come to understand this is not a very pleasant “holiday”.  I think we will start celebrating “Reformation Day on October 31” from now on.  Martin Luther posted his bold protest that launched the Reformation on “All Hallows’ Eve, October 31, 1517.  Protestant Christians have since  remembered October 31 as a major turning point in the history of the Christian Church.  A time when the Gospel of Jesus Christ once again began to shine forth in all its splendor.  Our hearts need revival now.  This world is so full of hate, violence and evil already-why celebrate a day to honor it.  Makes no sense to me personally! 

Revive me O Lord, that others may see in me you!  Help me to be a vessel that is willing to be molded into more of you and less of me!  Then people will really say “WHO DAT”!
