SIMPLESEW: WEST TEXAS , WACO TRIBUTE FOR FIRERIGHTERS FROM STITCH NICHE STITCHERS

About my header

My shed is my header by my son Darrell, He painted the Robin for me and said that it reminded him of me. Because Robins use other birds nest and if there is an egg in it, they will take care of it just like its their own. He said thats what I do, I have always taken care of others in need of a home when I come across someone in need. Isnt that Sweet, I had told him I wanted a bird and this is the one he chose. Robins have solid blue eggs which are the symbols for him and his brothers and the speckled egg are the others I have taken into my home. It was very touching to me because he researched his piece, He is a true artist and has lots of great jobs. my neighbor had hers done to

WEST TEXAS , WACO TRIBUTE FOR FIRERIGHTERS FROM STITCH NICHE STITCHERS

WEST (CBSDFW.COM/AP) — On April 17, an explosion at a fertilizer plant in West, Texas, leveled part of the small town. Most of the victims were first responders from fire departments in West and other nearby towns that were on the scene trying to control the fire that preceded the blast.

I live in Arlington, Texas, USA... I am a proud member of a local Stitching Group that works out of Stitch Niche, its where we all go for our hand stitching needs and framing. During Spring retreat this year the owner asked us if we would like to stitch the firemans prayer for the firefighters that she personally knew that were effected and killed by the explosion. Of coarse I agreed. Some of us are taking turns stitching 2 lines and this will be presented to the fire house and money we have donated in their honor. I just completed my 2 lines and wanted to share with you. sewing is more than putting something together with thread.. xoxo

I say on this Independence Day, thank you to all our Veterans, armed and unarmed service women and men. Thank you for keeping me safe in my home..
