Outside the box!

I hope to inspire you to use your creative talents for the Lord and the people He places in your life."Who can find a virtuous woman?...she seeketh wool, and fax, and worketh willingly with her hands." Proverbs 31:10a,13

Two new hide and seek pillows

A friend from church is expecting her third child and asked me if I would make a hide and seek pillow for her other kids.  She wants it to be a present from the baby to them.  I thought it was a sweet idea so I set off to work.  We had a conversation about these neat toys one night while serving in the nursery and told her I would make them for her.  She's going to have this baby any day now, so I knew I had to get them done this weekend.  I made them for the first time for our eight nieces and nephews this past Christmas. I made those square-shaped.  I thought it would be fun to make two new shapes. Michaiah is receiving this heart-shaped pillow in her favorite color when her new little brother is born.
This little star is for Ethan.  I used fabric paint to decorate both of them. Each has their initials on their pillow, as well as a tag indicating what objects they need to find inside....lots of fun!

Hi there! Welcome to my blog. I've been married to Quentin for 9 wonderful years. He is the pastor of a small church in Lafayette, CO. We are currently foster parents to a sibling group of 3 and have two adopted daughters--yes, we have 5 kids! We are hoping to adopt the others some time this year. Before moving here, I taught school for 12 years, mostly in the elementary grades. I love keeping the home, baking, crafting and sewing. Here you'll find lots of ideas for ministry at home, church and community. If I can be of any help to you, please let me know!
