This morning we are on our way to the hospital for Dad (FIL) to have his surgery tomorrow. We’re quite positive about things going well…..the doctor assures us it’s going to be fine, but Dad is 86 and has been through a lot this year already so all prayers and thoughts will be gratefully accepted. So, to keep occupied, I’ve prepared a few new little designs to stitch whilst I’m there…..six little Christmas designs….
…you didn’t think I’d show you yet, did you?….(terrible aren’t I?), but during the course of the week, I may show you some sneaky progress shots. If you look closely, you’ll see some Cottage Garden Threads hiding in there too! And some essential reading material that arrived in the mail today!
…which just happens to feature my Love Life bag on the cover! I think it’s a sign….
Remember, I designed this bag whilst sitting beside Dad at his last surgery? Reminding us to love every blessed minute of our lives and those people who hold special places in it.
If you’re not able to get your hands on a copy, you can purchase a PDF pattern on my Craftsy store. Just follow the link on my sidebar. I think we’re absolutely prepared this time….(in no particular order)….
stitching – check essential reading – check loving family – check skilled doctors – check a faith that rocks - check friends who care – check…..
yes……I think we’re ready! Sugary hugs xox :o)
