Block 57

Scissors,

needles,

hooks,

yarn

and 

thread. . .

Sweet Music

to my ears.

Needle Arts . . .

a true blessing for me.

They let 

the creative juices 

flow.

Sometimes through

another designers work.

Sometimes my own designs.

It could be

with hook and yarn

or 

material,

thread

and needle.

Switching back and forth.

Never knowing

which to do.

Wanting to do both

but without 4 hands,

that's impossible.

 With hands

busily working away

I am at peace

with myself 

and the world.

Dear Lord,

Such simple arts . . . taking simple threads and yarns and turning them into something unique and beautiful. 

I have always wondered:

1. How You first taught our ancestors to pick up bone and stringy animal parts and use them to sew things together? and
2. How did You ever think up something like crochet?

You honestly amaze me at times. Even though I know you are all knowing and created everything I would like to know how you came up with your ideas. Maybe, one day, we shall meet and you can explain these thing to me.

Amen
