Hey Jenn, alot of resurrecting going on! I like your idea of freehand, cross stitching, and may have to give it a go. I have one of those UFO lighthouse, cross stitches that I mixed up the thread and remains perpetually unfinished! Hopefully God doesn't leave us in the unfinished drawer! 🫣

I hope not, too--although as I age my view of the next life becomes more and more robust and hopeful, and I guess I'm pretty confident we'll be as finished as we need to be and keep growing even more glorious then and there. 😊

Re: resurrection--did you see my post from the beginning of the year that that's my word for the year?

I went back and checked it out. ( your Jan 8 post) There must be something to that. Perhaps many things die prematurely in our life that need to restand. That other post where you spoke of moving into leadership, permission or authority to speak into people. It's crazy that lies are ok for us to believe until someone (Jesus through us or others) says no, no, no child. There are things that need to reawaken. (and yep, had to subscribe!) Thanks Jenn!

"Fantasy Triptych." It's really beautiful, but there's just so much blended floss! I definitely want to finish it (someday), but for now I'll just take it out of storage every once in a while.

All of her patterns are so gorgeous but really take so much attention.

Okay now we're in my lane. I love the free-hand approach to the cross-stitch! The designs are coming out great. I also can relate to the UFO's (un-finished objects).
