I was out and about early this morning! The sun was shining and the birds were singing!


Hat worked on the loom in 3 shades of purple.

Do not judge, or you too will be judged. For in the same way you judge others, you will be judged; and with the measure you use, it will be measured to you.
Matt. 7:1-2

Some fun looking fungus and some 'treasures' I found!!


A knitted hat.

Store up for yourselves treasures in heaven..
For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.
Matt. 6:20-21

The weather man says 'a slight chance of a possible snow flurry'.
I woke up to a couple of inches of the white stuff.


I am so glad that I got out for a photo op with the daffs yesterday morning!
This is what they look like today!

As the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without deeds is dead.
James 2:26

Hats worked on the looms.


Our daffs are looking remarkably well considering the weather we have had for the past week and a half!!

Self-realization only leads to the glorification of good works, whereas a saint of God glorifies Jesus Christ through his good works.

Knitted hat worked in reverse st st. I was just playing around with some stripes of color!


More spring things!

Then your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you.
Mat.. 6:4 & 18

12" crocheted squares to be mailed out for assembly.
The purple one will be going to Project Linus.
The red, white and blue one will be going to a VA hospital.




First dandylion of the season!!

To fulfill God's perfect design for me requires my total surrender-complete abandonment of myself to Him. My goal is God Himself, not joy nor peace, nor even blessing, but Himself, my God. Whenever I only want things for myself, the relationship is distorted.
O. Chambers

Yesterday started out foggy. Made for a lovely sunrise!

Finished up knitting this hat.

Looks like everyone was feeling a bit frisky yesterday!
The cow-bird and the red-winged blackbird were fighting over lunch.
Mr. and Mrs. Mallard stopped by after supper for a quick little dip in the pond.


The clouds moving in made for a bright and colorful sunset!

A saint is not to take the initiative toward self-realization, but toward knowing Jesus Christ...The aim of a spiritually vigorous saint is 'that I may know Him...' I am not here for self-realization, but to know Jesus Christ.
O. Chambers

Knitted hat. Just something simple, soft and fluffy to work on over the weekend.


Spring flowers from a week ago.

Who is wise and understanding among you?
Let him show it by his good life, by deeds done in humility that comes from wisdom.
James. 3:13

Hats worked on the looms. It is so hard to see the details of these hats in the pictures, but every hat that is worked on the loom is made with 2 or 3, sometimes even 4, strands held together.


Sunrise.


More early spring findings.

One thing God as spoken, two things have I heard:
that you, O God, are strong, and that you, O Lord, are loving.
Ps. 62:11

"Why do you look for the living among the dead?
He is not here;
He is risen!"
Luke 24:5-6

Praise the Lord, O my soul; all my inmost being, praise His holy name.
Praise the Lord, O my soul, and forget not all His benefits-who forgives all your sins and heals all your diseases, who redeems your life from the pit and crowns you with love and compassion, who satisfies your desires with good things so that your youth is renewed like the eagles.
Ps. 103:1-5

May my meditation be pleasing to Him,
as I rejoice in the Lord.
Ps. 105:34

And here it is! My latest child's sweater for charity!
I am so happy with this one! I had so much fun making it! I love the wavy cables. It was just enough to keep my interest without getting frustrated with it.


The spring flowers are looking so very sad. All these days of below freezing temps are really taking their toll.

So Joseph bought some linen cloth, took down the body, wrapped it in linen, and placed it in a tomb cut out of rock. Then he rolled a stone against the entrance of the tomb.
Mark 15:46

No knitting content today. I worked on my latest sweater for charity yesterday. Hopefully, it will be finished today! But here is a counted cross-stitch picture that my son just finished! He is 22 and has worked on this piece off and on for several years. He is in carpentary so there are times during the winter months when things slow down for him. It makes a mom's heart smile when he spends at least one 'snow' day a year doing something like this!!


Hubby and I have started over 200 veggie and flower seeds in the house! Most of them are coming along nicely!!

This is my Dill Atlantic Giant Pumpkin. I have tried these before with no luck at all. But I am determined to give it one last attempt to get a LARGE pumpkin! (LOL! Anything over 5 lbs would be good for me!! But this little booger is suppose to get 500 lbs!!)

Some kind of orange flower that is growing from a bulb that my daughter gave me last May. I wasn't sure I would be able to get it to bloom again, but here it is!!

Then Pilate asked him, 'Don't you hear the testimony they are bringing against you?'. But Jesus made no reply, not even to a single charge-to the great amazement of the governor.
Matt. 27:13-14

Child's knitted mittens.

On Tuesday we had record high temps. 79. Yesterday it was 36. By supper time we had snow. And it is still coming down.


We had an unexpected visitor in our tiny little pond yesterday afternoon! A male Mallard duck!! He didn't stick around too long, but we have never had one here before so it was exciting!!

Know that the Lord is God.
It is He who made us, and not we ourselves;
we are His people, the sheep of His pasture.
Ps. 100:3

Knitted hats

Turkey Buzzard

This is the creek that runs behind my parents place. Spent alot of time there growing up!

White crocus.

Abram believed the Lord, and He credited it to him as righteousness.
