Spiritual - "Mildness is the flower of charily, a participation in that infinite sweetness with which God guides and governs all things. There is no one who has a greater desire for our good, for our sanctification, than God; yet He ever uses harshness, severity, or violence. With a sovereignly gentle power He sustains our efforts, always respecting our liberty, always waiting for our acceptance of grace with infinite patience and mildness."
Divine Intimacy How I wish I could imitate that mildness!
Sewing - This top for Audrie is a t
unic
length tucked blouse made using a floral lawn. The pattern I used is
the "Tucked Linen Blouse" by Lezette Thomason of Children's Corner. She
taught it this summer at the School of Art Fashion in Huntsville. I
don't think this will be published. The tucks are made using the bobbin
thread thus eliminating the need to tie the threads on the inside of
the garment in order to secure them ... great technique and worth the
entire price of the four day school! I added lace tape at the bottom and used vintage buttons from my stash. I have the tunic on "my" dress form which is really too large for Audrie's size, so the tunic "pulls" a little.
