This Tuesday is another great sketch challenge. Being a quilter (well, I used to before I started stamping!), I chose a sewing theme and started with the Spool & Tape for my focal image and just love the sentiment about prayer. I find my day just doesnÂ’t start well without it!

Paper: Solar White (Neenah); White and Ocean Tides (PTI); The Sweetest Thing (My MindÂ’s Eye)
