Cute Tooshies

I have been meaning to post this pic my friend Andrea sent since February! Now that is just sad, isn't it? I made these bloomers for the cute little tooshies you see here. It is rare that I actually get to see what I have made being put to use, so I LOVE this! Thanks so much Andrea for sharing!

My Sweet Grandma


This was in 2005.


Christmas morning 2006 reading the Christmas story from Luke 2 to my son Noah.


Christmas 2008


Her 96th birthday party! (my mom beside her)

My grandmother was an awesome lady, and probably the reason I know how to sew. She was an amazing seamstress who I am pretty sure could make anything! Growing up she made all kinds of stuff for me including quilts, curtains, pillows, dust ruffles, not to mention all the clothes she made for my dolls when I was young. She did cross stitch, crochet, and even some embroidery by hand (before the big machines they have now). Pretty much any kind of sewing you can think of. She is now my inspiration to keep on going in this embroidery business. In her last few years her memory had failed her and she couldn't remember that I had started sewing, but when I would take her some pieces to show her she was so proud. She was a hard worker who loved to serve others until the day she went to be with Jesus. She passed away June 4, 2010 and I will miss her every day for the rest of my life.
"He will wipe away every tear from their eyes, and death shall be no more, neither shall there be mourning, nor crying, nor pain anymore, for the former things have passed away." Revelation 21:4
PRAISE GOD! praise God!
