She didn't see me come in and I had to go and touch her arm before she even knew I was there.
Along with not hearing well she really concentrates on that sewing machine.
I told her to go ahead and sew and she did a few minutes and then she turned around on her little stool and said, "Lets talk."
I will check and see if any family members are wanting this and the next 2 quilts before I put on my sidebar for sale. Isn't this one just so pretty?
Granny says she didn't do as good on this one. The lines aren't as straight as she likes them but it is a very pretty quilt.

As you can see most of it is white but somewhere in there is some off white squares. I never saw them.
She requested a purple quilt and she was tickled when I emailed her this picture.
Thank you Tina.
This is the quilt that Granny was working on last time I was there. You can actually see it on the last Granny post. It was on the machine. Granny just amazes me everytime I go to see her.
She says she is really having a hard time getting up and walking in the mornings. She said her mind wants to walk but her legs don't want to. But she told me that the verse I gave her a while back is what she repeats as she is trying to get her legs going. She looked at me and said whatever you go through just repeat that verse in your mind and heart and you can get through anything. Little did she know I needed to be reminded of that this week.
So if Granny can get her legs going by repeating this verse, I know I can get through anything by doing the same. Thank goodness for Granny!
I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me.

That verse IS such a blessing. Love seeing her creations.
She is such an amzing woman and a wonderful role model. I"m so glad that she is still able to get around on her own. That is what keeps her going, I'm sure.
Hi Dear Friend,
Your granny just amazes me! It seems as though she is every one's granny here.
I admire her strong work ethic especially in doing something she so loves to do.
My thoughts are with you.

Yep, Granny is amazing! I'll keep her in my prayers too, for her legs. You are very blessed to have such a Godly woman in your life, dear Val. I'm praying for you guys too!
Yea Granny is truly amazing. Val, I meant to tell you that Granny's quilt arrived last week, thank you and thank Granny for me. My son loves the colors and the design. He was impressed when I told him about Granny.
Peace, Patty
Granny is an inspiration to us all. I love to see what she has been doing.
Hello Val, Granny is just a love, isn't she? I miss both of my Grandmothers. They were so special, too.
I had that verse stuck way back in my brain. It was nice to read it again. It is so true. I, too, could have used that verse a few times lately.
Wishing you and your family much strength...as the verse says.

Each time you write about Grannie it makes me feel so good to see her up and about. So glad she is able to quilt, I really think that keeps her going and she loves it. That was a wonderful verse to give her, we all need to be reminded of it don't we?! I loved visiting the antique shop with you via blogsville! I saw so many wonderful things that I would love to use here in my house!
Thank you for sharing part of your day with Granny. She is an amazing woman and such a source of strength and joy. That is a very special verse to comfort each of us. Blessings to you this day Valerie.
Seeing that verse this early morning and knowing it is helping Granny brought tears to my eyes. That verse has helped me at some low times and it can you (and others) if we just let God!
Said it once and will say it again - always love your Granny posts.
Granny is an inspiration for sure...a wonderful scripture to tuck in our hearts.
Granny is definitely a sweet inspiration to us readers as well. She is so precious. Wishing you a great day, Val. :)
Granny is a wonderful human being and I'm so glad you have shared her with us on your blog.......she is such a large part of your blog!!! That verse is one that all of us should internalize.......as we all have trials and tribulations that cause us some real struggles. Thinking of you....LOTS!
She amazes me, too. I love the scripture that motivates her. She is truly an inspiration to us all. I hope you are doing okay--sounds like some trials that you are going through. God Bless. Have a great day. Julie
