James 2: 12So speak ye, and so do, as they that shall be judged by the law of liberty.
13For he shall have judgment without mercy, that hath shewed no mercy; and mercy rejoiceth against judgment.
14What doth it profit, my brethren, though a man say he hath faith, and have not works? can faith save him?
15If a brother or sister be naked, and destitute of daily food,
16And one of you say unto them, Depart in peace, be ye warmed and filled; notwithstanding ye give them not those things which are needful to the body; what doth it profit?
17Even so faith, if it hath not works, is dead, being alone.
18Yea, a man may say, Thou hast faith, and I have works: shew me thy faith without thy works, and I will shew thee my faith by my works. |
| Angela found a link to a Bible resource that's pretty nice. Check it out This one has any translation you want to read in many languages, and also provides the Bible audibly (look for the little sign for a speaker on the page above the scripture title). It's good to read the Word and listen to it at the same time. If you ever need to talk to someone, you can email me privately at Jackie@oregonpatchworks.com |

I made some scarves for our friends, to wrap them in warm memories of their vacation to the Serengeti, Tanzania. I used designs from the Blackwork Wildlife 1 and Blackwork Wildlife 3 sets by Sunshine Embroidery. They stitched out so quickly and beautifully! Our friends love them. |

I read a tip on your page regarding bobbin cleaning and to add a drop of oil before putting in a new bobbin. Ladies check with your dealer. Baby Lock does not advise putting in the oil. Have a great day. Elsie |

Irene, You are even kinder than I imagined! I never thought that people would be so accommodating! And, yes, I did learn a very hard lesson! I download them to my computer AND the little stick thingie at the same time now! And, one of my friends said I should even back those up by burning things onto a disk!!! Oh, me; more technology to learn! I'm coming into the 21st century kicking and screaming!!! You have a great day! You've made mine, again! Dianne :) |

| QUICK TIPS |
| Do YOU have a tip to share? Send it to Jackie@oregonpatchworks.com |
| ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ |
| Rotary Cutter Re-Use: We all know how wonderful a new rotary cutter blade feels! But, the expense has us using them well beyond the point when we should be changing them. Since I also cut a lot of paper, I bought a second cutter. When my fabric blades start getting noticeably dull, I change it and put the old blade in the second cutter. I use this for cutting paper as the blades that are too dull for fabric still have a lot of life in them for cutting paper. Double the use of your blades and stop feeling guilty when you change them "too frequently". |
| ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ |
Overwhelming Organization: It’s that time of year when we feel the need to organize! What a daunting task! First, remember that when organizing, you will make a bigger mess than you had to begin with. This is normal! Work in small increments of time and accomplish only one task at a time. It might take you a bit longer to get done, but your endeavor will be much more enjoyable and won’t exhaust you. |
| ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ |
Thread Sorting: Many want to know the best way to sort their thread. This is honestly something that each of us has to research on our own. I sort my full-assortments by number. For those brands that I only have a few of, I sort by color. I keep my rayon, polyester and sewing threads separate, as well as any specialty threads. I keep all my thread in clear drawer units, but I prefer them on racks on the wall. There is no correct way to do it. Spend the time to find out what works for you! |
