Inspiration Is Where We Find It

“The best and most beautiful things in the world cannot be seen or even touched, they must be felt with the heart.”

 Helen Keller

 December 4, 2020 I posted on my Facebook wall , I’m in the process of creating this fun quilt “Nothing but Joy” , inspiration from one of my beautiful little nieces! Thanks for sparking the creativity & inspiration Amber J. Mose  and Iveigh!

When my my niece,  Amber posted the picture of her daughter happily enjoying her strawberry ice cream my heat strings played a happy melody!! Instantly I wanted to capture this joy in a quilt and gift it to my little niece ! This photo was a delightfully delicious reminder that good and wonderful things can inspire us when we least expect them. I am grateful  to God for the simple abundance in the midst of challenging times.

Shared with a Transparent Heart,
