    Wow! She did a great job!
    “When you get to the end of all the light you know
    and it's time to step into the darkness of the unknown,
    faith is knowing that one of two things will happen:
    you will be given something solid to stand on,
    or you will be taught how to fly.” - Edward Teller


    “Our Earth is degenerate in these later days;
    there are signs that the world is speedily
    coming to an end;
    bribery and corruption are common; children no
    longer obey their parents;
    every man wants to write a book and the
    end of the world is evidently approaching.”
    — From a translation of an inscription on
    an Assyrian clay tablet, circa 2800 B.C.E.


    God, grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change,
    courage to change the things I can,
    and the wisdom to know the difference
    .

    ~Her notes looked jut like mine when I plan a project. I tend to make all my patterns,too. Gorgeous fabric, but I could never spend $200 on a single sewing project, especially with messy toddlers in the house!~

    I am so impressed!!!
    The piping alone would have driven me bonkers!
    I like the way she solved the little problems that popped up along the way too...very ingenious
