Did you know that I love to create? I crochet, knit, quilt, sew, scrapbook, and cross stitch. I love to make things with my hands. It is relaxing, satisfying, and helps me relieve stress.
I enjoy making prayers shawls. I give them away always. If I have a friend struggling with illness, grieving, or just needs some comfort I tend to lean towards making them a prayer shawl. I also make them for others who I don't know. While, creating them I pray over the stitches, think about their needs, pray for comfort, strength and healing. The shawls that I don't give to a loved one or friend I donate to my church for their healing ministry. (No we don't "heal" people, but help and comfort them while healing.) I have another blog where I share patterns and such from time to time. Here is the link to the prayer shawl pattern I created.
