The scalloped circle is from Paper Studio at Hobby Lobby...I have worked all day on a huge project (the project is little, but I did a TUTORIAL I will post for the weekend.) That's what took so long, and Ralph got pictures of me too...so funny!<br />Anyway, I LOVE the story about your mom and oh wow, you DO have her repurposing gene!!! I love the Christmas story--it is so beautiful beyond measure...<br />Thank you so much for being part of the inspiration of I Owe it All to Him today--you are such a blessing.<br />Love,<br />CindyCindy Adkinshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00094347625510484862noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6879117159074888241.post-84326698933166462762010-09-16T21:51:40.919-04:002010-09-16T21:51:40.919-04:00Donna - once again - awesome.

And I think it is great that you work on many projects at the same time - I think letting one sit for a bit - allows you to evolve it into what you really want it to be.Leo https://www.blogger.com/profile/13646642731074916053noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6879117159074888241.post-48203836778642301632010-09-16T21:51:00.414-04:002010-09-16T21:51:00.414-04:00I'm a Libra what ever the scale tips to that&#...I'm a Libra what ever the scale tips to that's where I wander off.

Gosh!<br /><br />That's certainly not our old Country blue from the 80's is it? <br /><br />I just purchased some chalkboard paint. I am afraid to start because I fear that I will "chalkboard" everything in sight. A few years ago I bought an old window that had been made into a chalkboard and it is wonderful.<br /><br />I am sooo like you...I always have about 5 different things going at once...plus I work so I am NEVER caught up with anything! lol <br /><br />You are a great inspiration!

Yours are wonderful. <br /><br />Yes, I'm guilty of starting one project and going to another. Sometimes I can have four or five projects going at a time and I can't wait to get them done.

I'm looking forward to seeing what you do with them.<br /><br />I'm like that with quilts....if a project is giving me fits, taking too long, etc., I put it aside and it becomes a UFO (unfinished object). The baby quilt I'm currently working on is nearly in that category, but I HAVE to finish it as its for a gift! The ripper has been a must have tool today....not a good machine quilting day.<br /><br />Love, KarenKarenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06077292074782387777noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6879117159074888241.post-12702112101357745482010-09-16T17:03:36.737-04:002010-09-16T17:03:36.737-04:00I am the exact same way!
