Hannah's birthday dress



Hannah and her friends Esther and Darlene


Hannah turned eighteen last November 2 and this is the birthday dress I made for her. She chose the design and fabric which is linen ramie. In the Philippines the fabric is called 'gusot mayaman' meaning the crumpled look of the rich. :)

NZ


I was quite late in catching the rainbow. It's almost fading but it's really lovely.



My sister Luisa and I just had to sit and watch the ducks as thE zoo is closed already. We were not able to see the animals inside the zoo. Better luck next time.

Mourning to Dancing

He has turned our mourning into dancing

He has changed our sorrows into joys

A song of praise instead of sadness

For our grief the oil of joy.

That we might be trees of righteousness

The planting of the Lord

That He might be glorified.


As far as I can remember, these are the lyrics of a song we used to sing at our summer youth camp. I love this song more than ever today.

Frilly Heart




I made a heart shaped pillow for my niece's wedding. It's made of satin material with lace ruffles, florets with pearl in center and pink ribbon.

If my heart could be as frilly as the satin heart I made, that would be coolness. But mine is a no frills heart. There is even a certain sadness in me heart. Nevertheless, I am a woman who is after God's heart of hearts.
