Week #5

Week before last while Daddy Bug was out of town, THIS is what I accomplished!

I made this sweet little baby quilt for my cousins who are expecting their first-born (her name is Vivian Arlene - isn't that darling?! Arlene is my Grandmother's name, and I myself am partly named after her. I'm also named after my maternal grandmother Bethlene. That's where the "lene" part of my name came from. Aren't I lucky?!)

Sorry about that! Back to my original post.

Okay, anyway, I had lots of colorful scraps which I brought with me to Colorado for this very purpose, and then I found the most cute fleece to back it with. Can you see the little fish on it?

Now I know I wasn't really making MY home when I did this project, but it warmed my heart to be able to bless my cousins.
(Cousins, please don't tell me if it wasn't your thing!) ;-)

Part of keeping home, or being a "keeper of the home" is finding ways to brighten your life and others with the gifts and means that the Lord has given you!

(Now if I can just finish the quilt I started for Zachary a year-and-a-half ago!)
