I have spent every free second of my life, since I was young making all sorts of crafts...sewing, quilting, knitting, gourd crafting, basket weaving, mosaics and much more. Now I'm into watercolor painting. I love sharing through homemade things because it not only gives love to others but gives me love and happiness. It also has been my therapy for life's stresses. My motto is " When life goes to pieces, make quilts". I consider that I have been given a gift from God every time I create something.
My second love is nature. Beautiful mountains, sunsets, sunrises, trees, canyons, waterfalls, birds........So my treasure attic is full of a lifetime of memories and love!
I read a book recently and it suggested to write down five things every day that you were grateful for, so I started to do that and I now have a list of over 260 things that I am grateful for. It has opened my life to what treasures I really have and how blessed we all are through God's love and care. Most of these things to be grateful for are the simple things of life.... this beautiful earth we live in, all the things sent from God for our enjoyment....and we have to know that we are blessed.
