Bracelets & More Water Bottles


We put some of our corn in the freezer yesterday......we had 36 bags....I think we did pretty good.....I didn't take any pictures of that.....but earlier in the week I made those bracelets...the one with the black beads and the one in the middle left say 'Jesus Loves Me'.........the other one in the middle has all the Grands Birthstones.......the one in front...is like those we made in VBS......
Black is the sin
Red is the blood that made your heart
White as snow
Blue is Heaven
Green is live forever
Yellow is streets of gold
This afternoon I finished these two water bottles......
PSALM 51; 7
Purge me with hyssop, and I shall be clean: wash me, and I shall be whiter than snow.

Crocheted Water Bottle Cozies

I am trying to drink more water.....with all this hot weather we are have I feel like I need it...and not all those Pepsi's .....so I made these cozies...it helps keep the water cool and when I have it setting at my machine at work it hasn't leave a wet circle......one of my friends at work saw the 1st one and ask me to make one for her and she would pay me for it.....I ask her how $3.00 sounded.......I made her one like the 2nd one...I took it to work today and she gave me $5.00 for it......I told her that $3.00 was enough...she said keep the $5.00.......I am happy....
PSALM 147; 1
Praise ye the Lord: for it is good to sing praises unto our God; for it is pleasant; and praise is comely.

SUNSET


This is what I saw yesterday from our front porch......God's work is always beautiful......tonight we got a little rain....and we really needed it......I Pray that we get some more......
I am still crocheting ....I really find it relaxing.....I am using up some yarn that I have had for a while....I think it is going to be enough for a doll blanket.........
MATTHEW 7;12
Therefore all things whatsoever ye would that men should do to you, do ye even so to them: for this is the law and the prophets.

IT HAS BEEN A WHILE

Sorry it has been so long since I have been on here long enough to write on my blog.......life is really busy some times.........but here is a few of the things I have been doing.......

First is a rag quilt I made for the bed in the guest bedroom/ my sewing room......

This is a bag I made for a baseball team that has a member that has leukemia and is in the hospital..... the team is going to sign it for him...Please keep this little boy in your Prayers....



These are some hairbows that I crocheted........


This is what I have been busy doing today......string beans......I did 7 quarts today...and will probably do at least that many next week.........



More crocheted items......most of them are dishclothes.....a cup cozy and a notepad/pen holder.....I have crocheted for a while...but have never learned to read patterns......that is why I am working on dishclothes.......and now I can understand the pattern terms..... at least some of them.............


I hope I will be able to catch up with my blogging friends and keep you posted ...a little better....
I have really missed you all.......
