Overflow Me

Recorded last night with my friends Ed and Natalie Wall.








Overflow Me

Let the water rise inside of me
Let the water rise inside of me
You have made a well inside me
Let the water swell inside me
Let the water rise inside of me

Holy Spirit reign inside of me
Holy Spirit reign inside of me
I am weak, Oh God You know me
I need You to overflow me
Holy Spirit reign inside of me

For You, You are the source of life
And You, You cannot be contained
Oh Lord, I am your vessel
Pour out your glory till You cover the earth
Rise up and spill out of me
Pour out love until You cover the whole earth

Cuteness


I had to take a picture of this. My mom was here today and my 3 year old daughter Elsie made her a "napkin cream pie".

Chinese Fabric




I got my Chinese fabric from Spoonflower today! The reds all turned orange. But that is my fault, because I did nothing to prevent it. This is the first time I have taken apart a scanned image and repositioned it into a fabric design. Normally I use vector art, where there is complete control over the color choices. Not so here. What I should have done is used Photoshop's replace color feature to pinpoint and adjust some of the more troublesome colors. I'm still happy with the way the fabric turned out though. The colors are bright and crisp and the extra orange does not take away from the design, in my opinion.

Chinese Village

One night years ago, I made my husband paint with me. I made a snowman, and he made this:

I love this painting! He was always embarrased of it, so I made a point of showing it to everyone I could. I lost it when we moved from Georgia to Pennsylvania. So sad! I looked and looked, to no avail. Then one day not long ago I found it in the attic. Whoopeee! Now I have made it into a fabric, of which I have ordered 5 yards from Spoonflower for my prizewinnings. I think I am going to make pajamas out of it. It has to be something I will wear a great deal so he will have to look at it often. These jammies are going to rock!!
