Home sweet home is where I wanna be (though I kinda wish my home was somewhere else in the world than where I'm at :) How wonderful that you received so many Christmas cards. It's lovely of you to keep them the whole year and pray individually for each and every person who sent one. Belated wishes to your hubby. I need to work on a little cross-stitch for a friend. I've gotten to where I need lots of light, daytime or bigger aida to work with. Your stitching is coming along nicely. Have a good week.Tammy@T's Daily Treasureshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01474928708908027789noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8162150278449660664.post-58964728958002585492019-01-13T18:03:07.561-06:002019-01-13T18:03:07.561-06:00Your crochet corner to corner blanket is a great w...Your crochet corner to corner blanket is a great way to use up scraps of yarn!

I am with you. I have to have a larger count cross stitch material to see well and a design that is simple. Not a lot of patience! Love the idea of keeping the cards in a pile to pray for them. Snowed here all day. Have a good Sunday!

I must say that it brought much comfort to me knowing our little family will make the rotation of your prayers! You are such a dear, faithful prayer warrior, and I will never forget how your helped to pray my dear niece through her high-risk pregnancy. That little baby boy is doing so wonderfully, and he loved Christmas this year! He is old enough to sort of understand now and loved seeing all the lights and sights! Oh, God is good...even in the midst of our afflictions and heartaches, He is faithful.

I do keep my cards in the short term as I recycle them the following year to make tags or toppers for cards. I like to get out and about to explore our beautiful surroundings and of course visit my family but in the main I like to be at home too.

I’m like you I’m a homebody but I love to fly overseas to see people, very special folks.<br />Special to be able to do this, too pray you can... God willing ..go to Japan in 2019, to see Alex it would be so good!<br />I love your new blanket that’s brilliant idea to use up scraps.<br />I keep out my Christmas cards to enjoy all January. I was very surprised to see mine, you described very well!<br />I think it a brilliant idea to pray over them in the months afterwards. I might try that this year.<br />You’ve been on my heart, I do hope you’re okay sending you lots of love and prayers,<br />Shaz in Oz.x<br /><br /><a href="http://calligraphycards-shazinoz.blogspot.com" rel="nofollow"><b>{Calligraphy Cards - Shaz in Oz}</b></a><br /><a href="https://wonderfulwordsoflifebyshazinoz.blogspot.com/" rel="nofollow"><b>{Wonderful Words Of Life - Shaz in Oz}</b></a><br />ShazInOzCardsCalligraphyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13246279405851387500noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8162150278449660664.post-63967644687692470172019-01-11T17:21:33.687-06:002019-01-11T17:21:33.687-06:00I love your C2C...so pretty but your cross stitch ...I love your C2C...so pretty but your cross stitch takes the cake! The design is so pretty and the colors are perfect. I don't blame you for keeping it for yourself. They are really cute designs! I also love your 9 patch square....do you outline those in a white border or am I thinking of Bakery Bears? Shaz is VERY talented! That is a beautiful card!

What a wonderful way to think of them through the whole year.<br /><br />I do display cards that I get throughout the year. We have built in book shelves on both sides of the wood stove. Christmas cards were there. And, now there is a post card from DisneyLand that a friend sent last week. It stands on a very small frame.<br /><br />The star on that card really made me smile. I just purchased two leaded glass Bethlehem stars when we were up in Bethlehem, Pa last week. They hand in my front windows. I really wanted Moravian stars and when I find them locally I will get them too. Deehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08170904251383218423noreply@blogger.com
