This is my last entry for the year. (Posting on 12/31 for 12.29.24) I haven't made great strides in sewing this year, but it was more than in 2023!
A friend bought these bracelets for a specific prayer request for her family. The bracelets were too tight for two people, so I measured their wrists with a strip of paper and added elastic. I probably should have gone to buy black elastic, but I went with what I had on hand.
The message is "The Lord will provide." There are several Bible verses
that have this meaning, but my favorite is Philippians 4:19 "And my God
will meet all your needs according to the riches of His glory in Christ
Jesus." (NIV)
The ends were originally connected with a LOT of adhesive and some stitching. I used a seam ripper to remove the stitching, pulled one end off the little black tab, and added some elastic. Then I covered the connector areas with the original black logo piece and a bit of fleece. My stitching isn't very elegant, but I think it will work. I need to change the needle on my Brother . . . it has been working hard lately.
The one on the left is mine. The last week has been pretty busy with Christmas celebrations, hosting, etc. What a wonderful year it has been!
