Tons of posts coming soon! We haven't fallen off the face of the earth! :D ............but we did move!
Lizzy has been posting on www.the-writers-pen.blogspot.com So for farm updates, head on over to her blog!
As a side-note, take a look at this site: http://www.suddenlydarling.com/create-an-account.html?referrer=AUPRR-LAURAELIZABETH
It is a modest fashion website run by a Christian homeschooler and her dad. You login each day for 35 points, comment on articles and photos for 5 points each, and when you get 5,000 points, you get a $25 gift card! Lizzy and I have each received gift cards this month -- such a neat site!

Project Update!!
Here is a small update on my Regency Underthings sewing project.......
That's right.....I have only cut out the pattern and fabric........ life has been REALLY busy, and so my poor sewing machine has sat under its cover this whole year......well.....1 1/2 months that is ;-)
Here is a little tip..... I cut out my pattern in the largest size.....then, just folded the pattern to my personal size! I will be able to re-use the same pattern on multiple people! ;-)
I will begin sewing next week Lord willing! :D :D :D
Have a wonderful week!

My First Costume!
Here are the photos of the very first costume that I made!
My sister really wanted this dress to look just like the cover on the pattern, and picked out the fabric combinations herself! She also took it upon herself to find a hoopskirt -- and it was only $20! Great job Lizzy!!

One of my next projects will be the undergarments that go with this dress (Simplicity 2621) -- including the hoopskirt :D

Growing......
GROWING
Unto him that hath, Thou givest
Ever “more abundantly.”
Lord I live because Thou livest,
Therefore give more life to me;
Therefore speed me in the race;
Therefore let me grow in grace.
Deepen all Thy work, O Master,
Strengthen every downward root,
Only do Thou ripen faster,
More and more, Thy pleasant fruit.
Purge me, prune me, self abase,
Only let me grow in grace.
Jesus, grace for grace outpouring,
Show me ever greater things;
Raise me higher, sunward soaring,
Mounting as on eagle-wings.
By the brightness of Thy face,
Jesus, let me grow in grace.
Let me grow by sun and shower,
Every moment water me;
Make me really hour by hour
More and more conformed to Thee,
That Thy loving eye may trace
Day by day, my growth in grace.
Let me then be always growing,
Never, never standing still;
Listening, learning, better knowing
Thee and Thy most blessed will,
Till I reach Thy holy place,
Daily let me grow in grace.
