Mr. Whiskers

Commissioned by Jane T

Mr. Whiskers is 100% hand-stitched. His eyes, whiskers, mouth and toes are all hand-embroidered.

Little Miss Tweet

I finally got my inspiration today and made two stuffed animals. It felt so good to let it out!

Little Miss Tweet has sassy eyelashes and feathers on her tail.

Wally Whale

He is so happy.

Easter

I find it disturbing that when I search the word "Easter" in google images, the first 2 1/2 pages are all photos of bunnies, chicks and eggs.

Easter is not about bunnies and eggs. It is about the precious and undeserved gift of Jesus Christ. I hope at least one person comes to that realization today. One would be better than none.

Today is also a day of forgiveness. Without the forgiveness we receive through the sacrifice of Jesus Christ, we would be in trouble. It is important to forgive people and not live a life burdened by grief and bitterness.

I hope everyone has a wonderful day today. It is a great day to be alive.
