While I quilted this week, I came across a solution to a cutting dilemma. When I use paper templates (especially if I'm only making one block) the paper always seemed to move when I re-positioned the ruler. Had a light bulb moment. Why not put a dab of washable glue on the back of the paper so they stay in place? That's what I did. Problem solved.
a little dab of this glue stick did the trick. |

I found another bloom in our cactus garden. These are my favorites - they look like the flowers on the Christmas cactus, but prettier.
Double click on the photo to see the detail. Blessing to you all.
Glue has helped me through a lot of my sewing!

So sad. So young. Heartbreaking.

ReplyDeleteGood thinking with the glue, we patchworkers are a very resourceful lot.
Burying a child, no matter the age, is difficult. I am glad the family is coming together.
ReplyDelete47 - oh Lord. We do count on Your wisdom in these difficult situations. Your cactus flowers are truly stunning.
ReplyDeleteYour cacti are just glorious! So beautiful. Thank you for sharing the loss, more people praying for Matthew and his family is a good thing.
ReplyDeleteGood Morning,
ReplyDeleteI didn't see a like post for today, but wanted to wish you well anyway. Great idea about the glue, and your cacti are gorgeous. I suppose the blooms are all gone now?
