Acceptance


I know I am late, but I have given a lot of thought to what I would choose as my “word” for the coming year. There were so many in contention (1,025,109 in the English language according to Google) so how do I choose?

I know I could be more patient and more tolerant of others, but I think I have been steadily working on those two.

My dear quilting friend, Kathryn, with her 90 plus years of wisdom asked me recently what I was worrying about 1 year ago. I could only think of one thing that still exists today and this was something I could not change no matter how much I worried about it.


So my word for 2015 is ACCEPTANCE. I will try to accept the things that I cannot change and spend the time I was prepared to worry about it on my quilting. I should get a lot more accomplished this year!!!

Giveway post coming this week! Just have to prepare the scrap bags. Whoop Whoop!

    You are a "no reply commenter" so I replied on my blog comments to a comment you left.

  3. Hi Wendy, thanks for dropping by and as always being so sweet. My Jacob's Ladder is all repros and shirtings, I love it but can't decide whether to put a border on it or not.
    Your word "Acceptance" is so appropriate, when I look at what's going on in the world it's a pity there isn't a lot more of it!!
    Happy 2015 and happy quilting! Rowena
