You have created a family treasure...Well done, Jo! You have created a family treasure. I admire Gillian's seasonal pieces as well. But perhaps what I admire most is that both of you dare to exercise your creativity. Anne Bradstreet, wrote poetry back in the mid 1600s and wrote that some of those around her thought that she should be occupied with more practical pursuits. Still she wrote and some of her work was published. Finding out, when I was about ten that I was related to her and reading some of what she wrote, had a profound affect on my life. As a Puritan in New England Anne endured many hardships including having her home burned down, but because of her writing I know she faced this challenge with faith in God that all was still well and knowing that has encouraged me to grow in faith also. Her life encourages me to exercise my creativity, too. What you make may have positive influence you never dreamed possible! xxGracie Saylorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09499163425742659172noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5225566259581748208.post-71339852016053584502014-11-13T17:00:01.988+00:002014-11-13T17:00:01.988+00:00That's so, so lovely.

The style of stitching is perfect for the picture of the cabin, but of course it's the memories that it evokes that matter the most. xGillian Roehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05080123177116154219noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5225566259581748208.post-43950557104781623622014-11-11T15:04:41.043+00:002014-11-11T15:04:41.043+00:00Wow, Jo.

It´s always so nice to find an inspiring blogger. Your work is beautiful and I love the idea of stitching a picture out of your memory.
