Hope and Love

 On this day, when hundreds of people were shot by a crazy guy in Las Vegas...I choose Hope and Love, over despair and hate.  It seems that these two emotions are the exact opposite of what the shooter was feeling.  This is just where I was led today.  I have almost all of these blocks all sewn now, and will be putting the quilt together soon.
I finished the orange blocks for last month, and this month's color is pink.  So pink is coming up!!!


Have a day filled with Hope and Love!

SO hard to have hope as seems like most everything's bad news anymore. That and my bouts of a bit of depression make it tough. Praying is about all that we can do, I guess. Love the orange and the quilt!

Thank you for posting your quilt of Hope and Love, we the people of this country must be the ones to turn our country around and I believe that we must not sit idle but make our hope and love known to all, just as you have.. We have the power within us to bring our country back.
