I can't come up with anything in the least bit fun and creative for August for you - can't wait to hear your choice - love your joyful, affirming choices each month. Thinking of you, happy weekend!

Many hours and many projects to create!<br /><br />Yes, I thoroughly enjoy the processes which hand sewing require (basting, hemming, tacking, etc.) and of course embroidery and cross stitching... but then the latter two are handwork, aren't they? Love the use of my hands. Lord, help me be more grateful for my hands today...<br /><br />Hugs,<br />Kelley~Mrs. Kelley Dibblehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04192189624517973551noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4775144085133236065.post-55962054323498216602015-08-04T10:21:39.571-07:002015-08-04T10:21:39.571-07:00Arise August! helps get more of those very cute b...Arise August! helps get more of those very cute birds in the air and also lifts the fire dangers! :)ellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15188791638739872773noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4775144085133236065.post-555618242468485742015-08-04T09:50:55.841-07:002015-08-04T09:50:55.841-07:00Oh wow, those little birds are amazing!!
