Wednesday’s Word: John 14:23 & 1-2 Updated 8-13-20

We're continuing studying the Scriptures in Until We Reach Home by Lynn Austin . Sofia finds Ludwig and asks him for more verses to ponder. He shares some verses regarding his dreams of forming a home in America as well as our heavenly home.

We all long for a place to call home. As we do so, let's remember that the LORD longs to inhabit our very being, to make a home with us! Will we let Him? Will we love Him and obey His teachings?

Thank God that we ...

Panda Baby Quilt Made With a Friend from The Animated Librarian Quilts

Around March/April a quilty girlfriend and I decided that our other pregnant quilty friend needed a baby quilt…as one does. She found this free pattern on the Fat Quarter Shop website called Panda-Monium. We really just used it as a jumping off point. Their version has the center panda with the bamboo as pictured below.
