My 14-inch completed cathedral window square is made up of four sewn-together 7 inch" little pressed blocks........then I have hand-sewn 24 little 2inch colorful fabric squares for a finished block...WHEW!!!
This particular square has really been my depression companion ... lots of down, dopey, prayer thoughts and feelings.... when I've felt like giving up.... I stitched on and on.... step by step, one at a time.... coming close to perfection.... and making it to the end!
Then it is so neat.... to take a blank page in my life...via the next 7" square .....starting a new one.... there's hope and beauty to be attained in my life!
Actually, I had driven to browse an antique shop... picked up a pretty little 1920's TAM..little hat... and with all the down feelings.... I shot 4-5 self portraits with a smile..... Just trying to make it... PTL!
II Corinthians 4:17 verse: For our light affliction, which is but for a moment, worketh for us a far more exceeding and eternal weight of glory (!!)
