Remain

This is from Psalm 37.

The first half of the music is not yet written yet.











Remain

Flourishing green tree
Happy in your place
You spread out, down down and out
Your roots go down, down and out you seem
To be overshadowing everything
Drawing from the blood of the city

Nicely situated in one of your veins
Looking out my window
Leaves blocking out the light
Hotel of the wicked
Monsters hide in every hole
As you lift your branches
Suffocating sunny sky shining

And here we are
What a view
One's almost four
And one is two
How do we do when
Lions prowl outside
Waiting right beyond the porch

But look oh lookie here
Hear the words that make it clear
You're going down
The children laugh
And chase you out of town
The father laughs
For your day is on the way
You're going down
Like a puff of smoke
Away you go bye bye

Do not fret because of evildoers
They will wither like the grass
Trust in the Lord and do good
Dwell in the land and grow faithfully

Evil will be cut off
It will be no more
You will watch and see it
See it with your eyes, see it with your eyes
With your eyes

Those who wait on their God
Will remain will remain

SuperTwirl

Elsie was ruined for all other skirts by Mamma Made Design's Friendly Frog dress. All of the girly skirts I bought at the thrift store for the dress up basket dull in comparison and are not acceptable. So I made them up a couple of skirts from some material scraps my friend gave me before moving away. They are definitely twirly.

Another project...


One day I found my 3 year old daughter had ripped this page from the front of one of her books and put it on my desk, saying that she wanted me to design fabric just like it and make her some pajamas out of the fabric. Normally I would have reprimanded her for tearing up her books, but this was just too cute and I must say a bit flattering to me that she assumes I can make anything....

Hansel and Gretel


Isn't this picture cool? I totally love it. This may inspire a fabric design.
