First Blog Give Away Ever!

This is my Mimi and Papa and my jeweled ornament collection

I have a wonderful opportunity for all Patchwork Heart fans and Girlhood Home Companions. I am having my first-ever blog give away! In the spirit of the giving season, I want to give a big thank you to all my friends, patrons, and family members who encourage and pray for me and my family as we continue to grow our business!

One of my favorite things to do is to give gifts, so here is the really fun part! Not only will you get a gift from me, but you will also get one from my dear friend and editor of the Girlhood Home Companion Jill Novak.

In honor of the project I made for the Christmas edition of Girlhood Hood Companion, I am giving away a Jeweled ornament, similar to the Jeweled Heritage Ornament featured in the Girlhood Home Companion(the only difference will be the jewel on top. I can't give away my Mimi's jewels, I'm sure you can understand). You will also get a copy of the Holiday Girlhood Home Companion. Are you giggling with excitement yet?

Here is what you do, it is so easy: comment on my blog, then tell a friend and have them comment on my blog, just send them this link: www.thepatchworkheartcomblogspot.com and finally, go to Jill's site, Remembrance Press, and leave a comment there, as well.

Easy as one- two- three! I will then collect all the names and draw one lucky winner, Wednesday, Dec. 2 to start your Christmas season off right!

**Please make sure if you don't have a blog to leave an email, so that if you win, I am able to contact you. You may email me directly with this info just go to my profile page.

Household of Faith and Friendship

side view

Do Not Worry

Look at the birds of the air; they do not sow or reap or store away in barns,

and yet your heavenly Father feeds them.

Are you not much more valuable than they? Matthew 6:26

I have a real love for birds, so does my friend Laura. She made a bird house creation awhile back and so I made a spin off of her idea. Birds of a Feather Flock together right! Well, these two birds do anyway... She has become a great friend and real inspiration in my life. She is able to see me with the eyes of Christ my warts and all and I am so blessed by her friendship! This bird house not only represents our households of faith but also our households of friendship!

Here is my Fall Release Paper Art Creation! I have used 4 different Layers of Color sets on this Laura has I have utilized 4of the nine new designs sets being released today! I have used: A Touch of Elegance on the eves of the roof and as the nest entrance, Merci Bouquet on the background, Her Majesty's Urns for the finials and in the center, and Backyard Birds. I also used the Garden Borders set. I used glitter glue, watercolor pencils, embossed paper and old text books, 2 types of stamp ink, and clear bubbles.

Party On! Another Sneak Peek project!

noreply@blogger.com (Musing of a Patched Heart) — Fri, 13 Nov 2009 13:00:00 +0000

Another SNEAK PEEK! This is another project I will unveil on the 15th at the LOC Fall Release Party. I used LOC stamps, card stock, re purposed cashmere sweater, beads, lace, velvet ric rac... oh I am saying too much you will just have to check back and see!

Have you ever been working on a project and with every little detail you add it seems to unfurl itself? It seems to bloom and get better and then you get more excited, so you want to keep creating and not do laundry... uh hummm... ooops! True confession.

Well this was one of those projects. It has been taking up much needed brain space and I was finally able to devote some time and energy to it. It is the end of something I started last year and I hope to have the pattern and instructions up on my website, The Patchwork Heart, Co. for purchase just in time for the Christmas season! YEA! The best part is that I have used LOC stamps from the New Fall Releases! It will be an e-pattern so you pay-download- and go, art and crafting just got easier!

The Gift

noreply@blogger.com (Musing of a Patched Heart) — Fri, 11 Sep 2009 14:42:00 +0000

I was given a gift today.

Unexpectedly.

Isn't it a beauty? I have been collecting these treasures over the years and I am up to about seven. They have all been abandoned or blown from the trees in our yard.

I just marvel at all the layers and funny fibers that are found inside some of these nests. This one has a bit of red curling ribbon and a beautiful stem with the seed pods still attached.

The outsides are always tattered, matted and rugged.

Rough.

But not the inside. In the roundness of the inside I can see the smooth indentation of where small eggs were cradled and where small babies were care for. It really is so sweet to ponder.

My husband brought this in on the first afternoon of home school, as the kids and I tackled our classical writing exercises. It was rough day, we were tired in our thinking and progress had been so slow. It was such a kind gesture. I really felt such a deep warmth come over me like peace.

Thank you dear husband.

Even the birds of the air are cared for and not forgotten like it says in Matthew 6:26. You can see the Lord's provision for these amazing creatures. It reminded me in a tangible way that the Lord will make a way in this chapter of our lives and bring me peace.

He does care for me.

Do Not Worry

²⁶Look at the bird

s of the air; they do not sow or reap or store away in barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not much more valuable than they? Matthew 6:26

Doing Hard Things

noreply@blogger.com (Musing of a Patched Heart) — Mon, 31 Aug 2009 22:53:00 +0000

Oh am I being stubborn!

Not the kind of stubborn you are when you are right and someone else is wrong, its the kind of stubborn born from not wanting to plunge into something you need to do. Some call it procrastination. For me, this type of stubborn is formed from the later and therefore, it is an attitude of the heart.

Yea, I know not so good.

Usually, I love a challenge and I am anxious to try new things but, I am not feeling that way about some new things on my horizon...isn't that strange? I wonder where this is coming from? I have a feeling it is a sense of having to give up other things in order to do something I know is important. Perhaps it means rearranging my priorities to serve others for awhile.

So in other words it comes from the desire to serve self first....ohhhh.

Boy is that disappointing. You know, when you do "the-reflective-inward-look" and it isn't so pretty. The whole dying to self thing is a tough one in the life of this Christian. It is times like this that I am grateful for the loving grace of Jesus. I am glad that He is the bearings by which I can reset the compass of my life to when I get off course.

Well, this home school year is looking to be a great challenge for me. I have 2 middle-schoolers this year and the challenge comes in the form of Latin, Classical Writing, and Formal Logic. Yes, I know isn't that crazy? Would you want to dive right in? I didn't think so...see what I mean?

The upside to these classes is that I will get all the knowledge and skill as a by-product from teaching these things to my children. The bonus of homeschooling! Not so convincing is it....

So say a prayer for me this year, as I dive into these challenging subjects. We will all have our noses in the books of great writers and philosophers from ancient times. I am sure the Lord will bless the effort and we will learn wonderful things from our journey through time. I know I will enjoy following the golden thread of providence God has woven in the tapestry throughout all of history.

Lord, you know my heart... I pray that I would give my selfish desires a rest and give them over to you. Bless our efforts to study new and exciting things even when I fail to be obedient and humble, use these lessons and this homeschooling time for your glory and our refinement, especially mine. Amen

Getting back into the swing!

noreply@blogger.com (Musing of a Patched Heart) — Fri, 28 Aug 2009 23:55:00 +0000

Getting back to the swing of things. There is something of great comfort to me about the change in season and rhythm of life. It does my mind and spirit good!

Today was a great day! My friend D. and kids came over and we went on our annual blueberry pickin' trek. We picked in the morning, came home and made lunch for the kids, then got busy!

We canned 16 jars of blueberry preserves with some left over to snack on. We are pretty proud of ourselves and let me tell you the blueberry preserves are something to die for. And to think the berries were free at our local blueberry park, that makes it even sweeter!

I have always enjoyed the organic process of picking fresh food and then preserving it for later for my family to enjoy. It seems like a lot of work but I sure do enjoy the satisfaction that I get from it. D. and I enjoyed the afternoon, chatting and laughing the day away. I can't think of a better way to get back into the swing of things!

Some down time!

noreply@blogger.com (Musing of a Patched Heart) — Sat, 01 Aug 2009 20:42:00 +0000

I got a lovely gift from my friend Laura at Layers of Color! What a delight to get this from her, she is so gracious. And she is the kind of friend I can truly be myself with, warts and all.

This is a little gem! I had admired it when she posted it on her website- Wow!- to think she had created it for me. These are some of my favorite colors too. She is the fair haired beauty and I am the dark haired maiden. Thanks Laura, I would pick you too!

Summer Preservation Project

noreply@blogger.com (Musing of a Patched Heart) — Wed, 01 Jul 2009 18:32:00 +0000

This summer I have taken on a preservation project. My daughters “NeeNee” has become so frayed with love that she is in danger of, dare I say it? Becoming extinct. So I am attempting my hand at quilting. So far it is a very rough and amateur attempt. However the good news is I think it will do its intended job and protect NeeNee.

My inspiration was to make a quilt using pretty fabrics on the top and then to sew the NeeNee onto the back. This way my daughter can still see her and feel her NeeNee. I am hoping that by sewing her directly onto the backing she will be girded up and won’t fall apart.

Now NeeNee can live forever…can you hear the fairy music?

I know that when I am feeling worn and frayed it is a good hug from my hubby and the word of God that grids me up, reassures me and steadies me on. The word of God also talks of sowing seed could I be so bold as to interpret the imagery of that to a different picture? How about, sewing the seed of His word onto my heart? Aaaahhhh I feel an art inspiration coming on! Oh happy day….

I will post the end results when I am done with the art and the quilt.

Thank you Lord for your word and the gift of words your inspiration is astounding to me. Lord I hope I will always bring you glory with my creativity. You are the song I hear in my heart and the colors by which I create. I love you Amen.

Fighting with Ourselves

noreply@blogger.com (Musing of a Patched Heart) — Fri, 26 Jun 2009 18:49:00 +0000

Today I saw my youngest fighting with himself. The inner battle of pride joined with independence and determination. I had asked him to move some lumber that had been sitting in the yard and to stack it neatly until we could get to it. After a while, the bad attitude coupled with lots of raw emotions, displayed with fist of frustration well, it started to really grate my nerves.

My first inkling was to quickly chastise him for his outburst and poor attitude, but then it occurred to me, that all he really had to do was ask for help. As he tried to untangle this heap of wood and boards by himself he got more upset and more frustrated and more determined to show it who was boss. Tears came and went, soon grunts and groans. Pouting in defeat. All the while I kept praying please just ask mama for help and I will gladly come help you...

Oh how I know this place.

If you threw in a few cuss words that could've been me! Not such a pretty site mind you, especially when you are 40 something and striving to live a life for Christ...there is no secret I fall short more often than not.

It got me to thinking about how so many times my heart would have been spare so much discouragement and frustration if I had only asked the Lord for help.
In my pride and determination to be independent I learn the hard way.

So, here is the lesson, it is much easier to be interdependent than alone.

Lord I pray for my son today, it was difficult to watch him struggle. It must be difficult for you as well Lord, watching us struggle as we so often do. Give him courage today to die to self and ask for help from someone who loves him. Lord I pray that he will come to you first with all that he has in him, that you would work mightily in his little heart and teach my son your loving ways. Amen

Rites of Passage

noreply@blogger.com (Musing of a Patched Heart) — Wed, 03 Jun 2009 15:04:00 +0000

Isn't this a beautiful picture? One generation leading the next. You might see dirty, grease-caked hands but I see something beautiful and oh, so precious.

I see ...a father teaching his son a valuable skill,

time well spent together,

a living example of fatherhood,

teamwork,

a job well done,

something new was learned,

a father's love for his son,

I see...

a rite of passage.

Lord thank you for this man, my husband. Thank you that you gifted him with many skills and a mind and heart that teaches his children. Thank you Lord that through the drudgery of fixing a car you orchestrate something beautiful and fulfilling. I am grateful for this man who lives a life carrying out your commandments to teach them diligently as he sits in his house and walks by the way and when he lies down and when he rises up... Bless them Lord bind them stronger and closer to one another, and to you. Amen

Big Blessings in Small Sweet Packages

noreply@blogger.com (Musing of a Patched Heart) — Thu, 21 May 2009 04:33:00 +0000

I have been maneuvering past lots of life bumps and emotional potholes on my path recently. Lately, it seems like the weight is draining my joy. I hate it when that happens! I write this with a bit of tongue and cheek in mind but, I really do hate it when I lose my handhold on joy! I find it most irritating because I am a fun loving creature by nature. I just am not me without it.

But grace is new every morning and this morning was no exception. I woke rested, physically refreshed and ready for the day, this was

Big Blessing numeral uno!

As I went about my day I had clarity of thought, and diligence in action. It was a good day of tying up loose ends and accomplishments. Out of the corner of my eyes I kept getting glimpses of two little impish elves(two of my kids) flittering about the house.

What were they up to?

Oh ...stay on task, Heather.

Stay focused.

Pretty soon, as I came into the kitchen I noticed this on the counter:

Big Blessing #2

Then a sweet little boy of mine told me with a twinkle of delight, to check in my bedroom, "there was something on my bed!" Well, that's strange because I hadn't made my bed yet. And this is what I found on my bed:

Big Blessing #3

Sometimes God sends me small sweet packages filled with Big Blessings. Tiny collections of trinkets, little bits and pieces of love tied with ric rac.

This was one of those days where my children were the bearers of God's kindness, the messengers of encouraging words to a tired mama's soul. They were just the map I needed to avoid the bumps and potholes and find my trail back to joy again. They lead me straight to the foot of the cross and the refuge of a loving Savior.

Oh Lord, you are such a wonder to me, who am I that you are mindful of me?

Thank you Father in heaven for your refining fires that I may count it all joy. Amen

Tea Time Celebration Favors

noreply@blogger.com (Musing of a Patched Heart) — Tue, 12 May 2009 16:45:00 +0000

Spring is a time to celebrate Easter, Mother's Day, and Spring Teas! It is a time when we start to linger longer outdoors in the evenings because it is still light out. It is also a time when it rains and winds blow in tumultuous clouds and spring storms. But I have the solution for the rainy, stormy, spring days.

Make some celebration favors. I used Layers of Color Flower Child stamp and dressed up this pre-punched purse from K&D Company. Add some glitter, antique buttons, paper lace and crocheted trim and voila! Cuteness!

Girl Time Tidbit #11- Our Mother's Day Tea

noreply@blogger.com (Musing of a Patched Heart) — Wed, 06 May 2009 18:13:00 +0000

Centerpiece of our round table

Your beauty should not come from outward adornment, such as braided hair and the wearing of gold jewelry and fine clothes. Instead, it should be that of your inner self, the unfading beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit, which is of great worth in God's sight.
1Peter3:3-4

My daughter deciding how things would look best

My younger daughter and I have been busy planning for our traditional Mother-Daughter Tea at our Church. This is a wonderful celebration of womanhood and motherhood, it is something we look forward to every year. This year I have decided it is time to give the responsibility to my 11 year old daughter. So this year she is in charge of the table decorations and favors. I was really excited when she said yes with such enthusiasm! I have enjoyed training her and making suggestions along the way, but ultimately the final result has been hers.
The first step is to decide on a budget and color theme
She was given $25.00 as her budget. She came up with the idea of using some pretty paper products that we already had. By doing this she saved money on her budget and was able to utilize that money for something else, goodies for the favors. The paper products also became our color theme.

Step two: Designing a center piece for the table
We started gathering things that we have in our home already and that fit with our color theme of light pink, raspberry pink, apple green and bright white. We pulled out antique linens, silk flowers, a small porcelain tea pot, ceramic bunny vase, crystal votive and tea light candles, picture frames, a tea book and milk glass along with everyday white tea cups and saucer. We will also used a sign I made for my daughter's room because I used the same napkins. I love the verse from above which is also on the sign. It is what we strive for in our home for our children. Let the fun begin! Here is what she came up with: isn't it just lovely!

Step three: The Favors
She wanted the favors to be unique and pretty but was limited by her 25$ budget. So I asked her if she would like to use some die cut paper purses that I had in my stash and wouldn't you know we had exactly eight in just the right colors, isn't the Lord gracious! She was able to find some cute sticky notes and pens at the Dollar Store, and we got fun tea and chocolate to go with it.

Favors were the purses, aren't they cute!

I am looking forward to sitting at my daughter's lovely table. It will be so wonderful to hear the other ladies encouraging her and giving her accolades on her efforts. I love watching the Lord's providence working out details blessing her efforts as we both yield to His gentle guidance.

Post event: We had a lovely time! My daughter was praised for her creativity and for the care she took in creating a table. What fills my heart to over flowing is the love and kindness ladies young and old showed her as they noticed how she placed things and what she brought to the table and how economical she was. They were so thrilled to see the tradition being passed down.

Snowing in Spring

noreply@blogger.com (Musing of a Patched Heart) — Sun, 03 May 2009 16:17:00 +0000

Our Cherryblossom Tree

We had a glorious day on Friday! The sky was the best color of blue like cornflower blossoms and the sunshine was good medicine for my tired soul. It was so warm and bright, no wonder the bulbs and seedlings reach out for it pushing through the darkness of the earth. I have felt like that lately, reaching out to the light to be warmed and nourished. It is amazing what an afternoon in the sun will do for a busy mama!

I decided since I wasn't feeling well that we could finish up our schoolwork outside on our new homemade picnic table. The sunshine and fresh air would do us some good! Something about a change of venue and the promise of being outside more often, was a great remedy for our lack of
enthusiasm towards school.

The breeze was balmy and so relaxing. To our delight as it blew through the boughs of our cherry tree it took with it, its billowy, soft-white, petals and then dropped them all around us. My youngest, with awe in his little boy voice said,

" Look Mama! Its snowing..."
