Slow and Steady
It is a slow and steady process to quilt this under the needle. A lot of shuffling the bulk. As I take time out to rest my shoulders, I think how long this would have taken my Mom and the “Riverdale Quilters” to have hand sewn this. Even taking yarn and floss would be a long time if I were tying it. I like the slow and steady pace of my life. My gosh how it has changed. I will admit, this time of the year is always the hardest for me, and keeping extra busy helps. Orlin and I lost a son 43 years ago during the hub bub of the Christmas season. Amazingly, the loss comes forward on its own and for a reason. Holding Carrie and Kevin so close to my heart to help the hurt lessen. There is a reason for this season and the birth of Jesus does help heal.
