Emergency quilt

Ever have one of those "emergency's" where you need a gift pronto!??

I took two quilt tops from my top bin and used one for the top & one for the bottom. This should be a pretty interesting present!

I need to start on the label tomorrow. I need this by Sunday!

DR Beth I will email you when I get this one done, I don't want to be the UFO Queen....rofl

Grounded

My husband grounded me. I hate hate being sick!
But I do get to sew a lot when I am grounded to the house...rofl!~!
Maybe I should feign sickness more often??

RULERS!

Rulers! Has anyone really stopped and thought for a moment on how many rulers there are for making "quilting easy"??

I counted and I am up to 24 different rulers!

I took a quilt class only to be told I needed another ruler! To make "perfect" flying geese.

OK, so how many rulers are there for making flying geese??

I own The companion angle, Easy angle, Easy star & geese by Kimberly Einmo, The wonder cut ruler and I even own 2 of Eleanor Burn's "Quilt in a day" flying geese rulers! Now in order to make "perfect" flying geese I was told that I needed to buy the "Flying geese x4 NO MATH Ruler"

O MY WORD!

What do you think??

JESSE IS SICK

The craziest things have been happening! Since New Years Jesse has been having these abdominal pains, right out of the blue it will hit him. Well today it happened again. The school called me and I went to pick him up. I drove right over to his DR's office. She ordered a chest xray, a surgical consult and EKG. We went first to get the chest xray. He was complaining he had some chest pain.
After he was done, the tech came out and said: "Mom you need to go right home, do not take him any where else do you understand me???" and she was bobbing her head up and down like one of those bobble heads. Next thing I knew I was bobbing my head up and down too! "The DR will call you" she finished.
WELL GEESH!~! you don't say that to a mom much less a RN who knows all kinds of ichy itis that can/could go/be wrong!!!
Thankfully the DR called right after I made it home and told me Jesse has pneumonia. We are to take his temperature and if it spikes he will be admitted. If not it is viral. She called in z~pack script.
Jesse isn't acting sick at all. As a matter of fact he wants to go to church tonight! If this was me I would be playing it for all it is worth and get a new toy out of the deal...rofl!!

Humanity

Where has the compassion gone? Why are things the way they are?

I was told about 2 little children dying because their family couldn't afford heat.

Then I hear about the 93 year old man that froze to death!

Can you believe this article said: "I've said this before and some of my colleagues have said this: Neighbors need to keep an eye on neighbors," Belleman said. "When they think there's something wrong, they should contact the appropriate agency or city department.""

Don't you think when they put a limiter on a house they need to explain it to the person INSIDE? and make sure they are of sound mind and can understand??

O then here is the icing on the cake!

DETROIT - It took three calls to Detroit authorities over two days before they recovered the body of a man frozen in ice in the elevator shaft of a vacant warehouse, a newspaper reported Thursday.

The news reported that people was using this building as a hockey rink and for months didn't tell anyone because they were afraid of getting in trouble.

WHY are things the way they are??

The Bible says:

Matthew 24
1And Jesus went out, and departed from the temple: and his disciples came to him for to shew him the buildings of the temple.
2And Jesus said unto them, See ye not all these things? verily I say unto you, There shall not be left here one stone upon another, that shall not be thrown down.
3And as he sat upon the mount of Olives, the disciples came unto him privately, saying, Tell us, when shall these things be? and what shall be the sign of thy coming, and of the end of the world?
4And Jesus answered and said unto them, Take heed that no man deceive you.
5For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many.
6And ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars: see that ye be not troubled: for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet.
7For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places.
8All these are the beginning of sorrows.
9Then shall they deliver you up to be afflicted, and shall kill you: and ye shall be hated of all nations for my name's sake.
10And then shall many be offended, and shall betray one another, and shall hate one another.
11And many false prophets shall rise, and shall deceive many.
12And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold.
13But he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved.
14And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations; and then shall the end come.

You can go ahead and call me a fruit cake but just take a moment and say to your self "WHAT IF all of this IS true?? What do you have to loose? Nothing!! BUT you will gain everything if you Accept, Believe and Confess Jesus as your Lord & Savior.

John 3:16

16"For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.

CHURCH

As promised here is pictures of the church under construction. There is so much more room. The stage needs to torn down and a new one built. Dan is going to do the wiring tomorrow. Then Friday they are going to get all the sound equipment. This is so exciting to see! I can't wait until it is done.
