This is one of my favorite songs.  It speaks to the wonderful price Jesus Christ paid because of His love for me...and You.

Happy Thanksgiving!

I am partial to American made.  I will post my embroidered items when completed.

Blessings for the holidays!

Sweaters

A lot has been going on these days and I have been long overdue with a post.  The knitting and crocheting is coming along beautifully.  Practice makes for beautiful work.  We are expecting another wonderful grandchild and this time the color theme will be mint green.  I really love my 260 bulky ribber.  Full needle rib is  my goal and Caron yarn has announced a 3 ply yarn.  Although acrylic is popular, and do believe a wool or wool blend would lend itself to a beautiful piece of work.  This is next on the agenda.  I've launched into making sweaters for the grands because they are just growing up so fast.  Furthermore, the girls just love my studio and the yarn it contains.  They design sweaters and I fully intend on making them...out of the mouth of babes praise is perfected!!

 This little sweater fit perfectly.  The embroidery added a very special touch to Zoe's sweater!

 Eden loves her sweater dress and once again the fit from the Knitware generated pattern was excellent.  Again, embroidery takes it to another level!

It's just wonderful having such wonderful models!!

John loved his 1x1 ribbed scarf -- it's listed in my etsy shop: Diamonds of Praise - http://www.etsy.com/people/GwathmeyGalleries?ref=ls_profile
