Scraps to Scrumptious

I have two friends who are avid quilters ----their dedication, their joy, and their skill delights me. As I was driving through Kentucky on the road to Iowa, I noticed a sign for the National Quilt Museum. I stopped to pay homage on behalf of my friends.
I once wrote about the Guilt Quilt I owned, wrapping myself in it and snuggling in the warmth of blame and shame. It had bits and pieces of bad decisions, sinful actions, missed opportunities - each contributing their own square. It took me years to understand Jesus came to trade my GuiltQuilt for His righteousness--- I no longer cowered beneath the enemy's recriminations for I was free.
Even though I don't quilt, I thoroughly appreciate the artistry and the love. The colorful patterns reflect the craftsmanship, creativity, and perseverace of the creator. I am so thankful His Righteousness is a cover of many colors, many blessings, and many rejoicings. I am thankful for Janet and Sue who are keeping this treasured handicraft alive and will pass their work down for generations. I am thankful His love endures forever and I am forever released to walk in His freedom.

I drop a comment when I appreciate a post on a website or I have something to add to
the conversation. It is a result of the fire displayed in the post I looked at.
And after this article "Scraps to Scrumptious". I was excited enough to post a thought :
-P I actually do have a few questions for you if you tend not to mind.
Is it only me or does it look as if like a few of these remarks look like coming
from brain dead visitors? :-P And, if you are writing on
other online sites, I would like to follow anything fresh you have to
post. Could you list all of all your shared sites like your Facebook page, twitter feed, or linkedin
profile?

Greetings! I know this is kinda off topic however I'd figured I'd ask.
Would you be interested in trading links or maybe guest writing
a blog post or vice-versa? My site discusses a lot of the same subjects
as yours and I think we could greatly benefit from each other.
If you're interested feel free to send me an e-mail. I look forward to hearing from you! Awesome blog by the way!
