December Reflections BIGGEST CHALLENGE in 2018 Staying in the light, putting one foot in front of the other and finding meaning in what is here and whatever I'm doing. God, it is hard! #decemberreflections2018 #biggestchallengein2018 #onefootinfrontoftheother #stayinginthelight #findingmeaning #photochallenge #taleswithfriendsI should've strutted a little louder. A little too subtle, but it's also me. #machineembroidery #peacock #toosubtle #taleswithfriendsStrutting my stuff Sunday morning. Stitching peacock and plans. #machineembroidery #peacock #stitching #strutting #taleswithfriendsDecember Reflections SHADOWS follow us wherever we go. I have to remember that light makes it possible. Without light, there can be no shadows. Sheba is my light. She's always looking out for me, making sure that I don't dwell in the darkness. Sometimes that place is just in our thoughts. It has no real foundations. Changing thoughts can turn on the light. #decemberreflections2018 #shadows #light #photochallenge #taleswithfriendsDecember Reflections BIGGEST SURPRISE In 2018 - All my elephants emerging in all their glory. Some more perfect than others. The latest in pink appliqué. It is somewhat flawed but stands proud with its trunk held high. #decemberreflections2018 #pink #biggestsurprisein2018 #elephants #applique #taleswithfriends #machineembroideryDecember Reflections HOME where the kettle is on and the buns are hot out of the oven. #decemberreflections2018 #home #kettleison #hotbuns #photochallenge #taleswithfriendsDecember Reflections BEST BOOK OF 2018 This is not a current book but it is one of the best ones I've read this year. It encouraged and motivated me to finish my table top of many squares. It's now boasting an embroidered story or two or three. Helen Kelley was a great quilter and story teller. She passed in 2008. I came upon this book quite by 'accident'. Of course I know that there's no such thing as accidents. It was meant to find me. #decemberreflections2018 #bestbookof2018 #helenkelley #everyquilttellsastory #taleswithfriendsWe are just pooped from creating. Just resting, snacking and watching traffic whiz by. #resting #snacking #watchingtraffic #tsleswithfriendsThe elephant is in the room. Her presence is hard to ignore. Her twin is trying to emerge on the other end. He proved a little more difficult to start. #machineembroidery #bernina #elephant #taleswithfriendsThere is an elephant in the room. I'm making it visible. #machineembroidery #elephant #bernina #taleswithfriends
