All the way to Ohio

The teacher I covered for last week has been visiting her new granddaughter, Evie, in Ohio, so I embroidered a bib for her to take out there.

I'm quite pleased with the effect of the variegated thread.

I know very little about Ohio - although according to Wikipedia, the state motto is "With God All Things Are Possible" and the state beverage is tomato juice! Who decided that??

Here's another of my bibs on a beautiful little girl - I was so thrilled to receive this picture from her proud grandmother.

The people brought children to Jesus, hoping he might touch them. The disciples shooed them off. But Jesus said: "Don't push these children away. Don't ever get between them and me. These children are at the very centre of life in the kingdom. Mark this: Unless you accept God's kingdom in the simplicity of a child, you'll never get in." Then, gathering the children up in his arms, he laid his hands of blessing on them.
