You guys, I'm super excited about this new product

You guys, I'm super excited about this new product!! This year, my goal is to celebrate the saints in our home. I'm horrible at remembering the dates, though. So, I wanted a way to keep them front and center...and created this lovely liturgical tea towel. The towel has the 2020 calendar printed on organic cotton canvas, and each month has the saint beside it. The saint's feast day is circled, ensuring you'll never miss their feast day! The second version adds in the seasons of Lent and Advent, as well as a few other key solemnity and celebratory days. So, what do you think? What are some of the saints you'd like to see on the 2021 calendar? ...pop over to @zelieandco to pick up your liturgical tea towel tapestry - I've been calling it a tapestry lately as, it's so pretty, I can't bring myself to use it as a towel 🤗
If you’re open to it, I’d love it if you could click on that little airplane icon and share this to your stories. It would mean so much!

“On this Feast of Epiphany in the year 1

“On this Feast of Epiphany in the year 1929, an 18-year-old woman arrived by train in the capital of the Bengal State in British India. Raised in comfort in Eastern Europe, this bright, young woman was to spend the next 20 years of her life as a Sister of Loretto, teaching geography to wealthy high school girls in the capital’s suburbs.

In 1949, at the age of 38, this same woman felt a powerful call from God to spend her life serving the dying and the poorest of the poor. She asked the local bishop for permission to found a religious order whose only ministry would be to the poor and the dying.

In her lifetime, Mother Teresa of Calcutta had treated over 50,000 dying people. Her order, the Missionaries of Charity, today counts over 1,600 sisters in more than 60 countries around the world. She was honored by presidents and applauded by prime ministers. 50 years after she set foot India, she was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize. Mother Teresa’s vision of the ministry of Jesus Christ, our sharing in that ministry as Christ’s embrace of today’s world, is simple but challenging. She once described it this way: “Everyone is created by God and deserving of love. It does not matter if the person is male or female, Moslem, Christian or Jew. It does not matter the person’s race or nationality. All that matters is that the person is created by God and deserves love.”” (Excerpt written by Fr. Mike @stmignite)

Excited to be a stop on Cinzia White’s #thestory

Happy New Year! I’m enjoying a quiet day at home

Happy New Year! I’m enjoying a quiet day at home today cleaning up the quilting studio. It’s gotten to be quite a mess with all the year end sewing going on, and I’m thankful to be getting things back in order. One thing I’m thankful to have done, as part of the organizing, is to replace my old cutting mat with a beautiful new one by @sewology. Now that I have it, I’m taking extra special care to extend its life. Did you know an easy tip for mat care is to keep it out of direct sun? The sunlight’s UV rays can damage the material in your self-healing mat, making it rough and dry. To extend its length, keep your mat in a place where it won’t be sitting in direct sunlight. Check out our IG Story to learn more. Happy sewing to you and yours in 2020!

One block down, 55 more to go 😅 Working on a quilt for Good Friday/Lent; it’s been one of the most requested quilt patterns this year, and I’m excited to have a draft of the pattern done. Putting a few touches on it before sending it to the pattern test team, and will hopefully have this quilt ready for February.

How are your last few days of crafting and creating going? What are you working on?

Tomorrow is the Feast of Our Lady of Guadalupe (De

Tomorrow is the Feast of Our Lady of Guadalupe (December 12th), where we commemorate the apparitions of the Blessed Virgin Mary to Juan Diego in December 1531 as well as the beautiful, miraculous impression of her image on his tilma (cloak). There is such peace in the message she brought...which one of us, after an especially long, hard, trying day, isn't comforted by the beautiful words she shares? Relax. Find peace. Don't worry. Your mother is here. All will be well.

Ready to baste your quilt? I've already shared how

Ready to baste your quilt? I've already shared how much I love basting spray (best. ever.), but it's always good to pin, too, to make sure your layers stay together. Instead of straight pins or safety pins, try curved basting pins! They're much easier to use than traditional safety pins as they're bent at just the right angle to slide through your quilt sandwich without bunching the fabric. Be sure to pick up a rust-free set - I love the ones from @dritz_sewing the most!

Advent starts on Sunday, and I'm so very ready to

Advent starts on Sunday, and I'm so very ready to pack away the pumpkins and bring out the candles. It's been a wonderful year for us as we've finished up our cross-country travels and come back home, and it's making this Advent and upcoming Christmas feel all the more special to be back in our house.

One of my fond memories of the trip was joining up with @takeupandread each morning to dive a bit deeper into scripture, share devotions, and connect with others as we explored God's word. Today, I'm excited to partner with them on an extra special giveaway so you can share in their wonderful ministry, too. Three lucky winners will received a copy of "O Radiant Dawn", the Advent devotional, and one grand prize winner will receive a copy of Our Family's Jesse Tree along with an interactive (and flame-less!) Advent Wreath you can sew for your family. Head over to @takeupandread to join in!
