I've blogged her about my grandma before, and I will again, but today it's with sadness. And also some joy. Early yesterday morning, my Nanny went home to Jesus. She was so filled with faith, she loved our great God so much, and I will miss her. Last night I decided that she needed to be honored with an embroidery pattern.
Nanny's pattern is the virtue of faithfulness. For so many reasons. One of the reasons that is illustrated is her love of knitting. She very faithfully knitted many, many things over the years. And not just simple things, but big things, complex things. She was a master of the cable, and never did convince me to try it...I'm still afraid! It wasn't until she was in her 90s and was finally slowing down that the knitting also slowed.
So, faithfully stitch up this pattern. You can get to the pattern through by clicking the image, or this link.
I'm so sorry, Mollie. May God grant you and your family comfort and peace.

ReplyDeleteI am so sorry for your loss, although I am rejoicing that your grandma is with Jesus. Just think, one day you will be with her again never to part! We have some angels at our church that knit prayer shawls. This little embroidery would make a lovely thank you for their faithfulness.
