Happy Valentine's Day


Hello out there! Happy Valentine's Day! Got special plans today? I won't know what

mine are until tonite. It's warming up a little today after yesterday's "snow" and

freezing temps in the teens & twenties.

Wanted to show you a baby afghan I completed last night.
It was crocheted with donated yarn. A group of ladies at
church get together once a month & knit, crochet, quilt, etc. for indigent mothers and their babies. Our offerings are then combined with tote bags full of diapers, wipes, pacifiers, shampoo, etc. and taken to the local city hospital. The response has been tremendous, both from ladies donating their time & talents and from the new mothers. This program was named "Wee Care" which I think is a great name for this wonderful project.
Have a great day and tell someone that you love them!

If Winter Comes, Can Spring be Far Behind?


Here is what I saw out my kitchen window. Can the groundhog be wrong?

Ash Wednesday & Tornados

Can you believe it's already Ash Wednesday? Easter will be very early this year.
Lent is a time of reflection and penance. Which can be hard. Of course, it's not
supposed to be easy or what's the use? It's to bring us closer to Christ and all
that He has done for us. How you approach this season is a personal matter,
but I hope you find some way to grow in your spiritual walk during this time.

Did you have storms last night? We were up until 2:30 with tornado warnings
and blasts from the storm warning siren. There was so much damage around
Tennessee even with deaths and injury. Our prayers are with everyone who
suffered from this violent storm.

I promise to get some photos uploaded soon. I'm still learning. LOL

Bienvenue mes amies!

We are so excited to begin our blog. We've been talking about it for a long time & now here we are! We are mere (mother) and fille (daughter). Also known as Nermal (Garfield's girlfriend) and Kitty. Can you tell we love felines? Our hope is to exchange ideas and inspiration with other people regarding expressions of art, whether painting, multi-media, fabric or yarn. And lots more.
Please send us a comment or two & we'll enjoy a rewarding exchange.
