Update....ARNIE..... in surgery today

I just received this note from my DS & DDIL who are helping Arnie and Cheri thru this very difficult time of their life. Today is the surgery. I ask for concentrated pray today and in the days to come for healing.

Please visit the blog below and leave a comment so they will know how many people care about them. How cool would it be for them to receive messages from all over the world. Our worlds are so small until we see how people from all over care about us in a situation like this.

Note; on the right side bar of the blog are two links, where you can send a gift to the family to help with financial concerns.

Note 2.....the quilts are in progress, and of course my machine is giving me fits (it needs prayer, too). I will post pictures to my blog for all to see once they are done, thanks to everyone who has helped with this project.

Hello everyone, I pray this e-mail finds you all well. As some of you know my dear friend Arnie has cancer and is having surgery today.
Please keep him and his family in your prayers. We have created a blog @ www.krahfamily2008.blogspot.com
Please feel free to post comments/prayers for the family and I will be updating as often as I can.
PLEASE FEEL FREE TO FORWARD THIS WEBSITE TO ANYONE WHO MAY WANT TO VISIT IT.
(Word of mouth seems to work or in this case e-mail)

Thank you so much and God bless you all.

Tags

Sharon G. on my crazy quilting list CQI, set up a swap centered on my article in CQmagonline. I had to be a part of it, after such an honor. I hope those who receive the tags will like them.

None of these were planned, they just happened as I went along.

Tag 1 is centered around the purple silk with the gold flower. The flower is accented with
Sassa Lynn thread, bugle beads and seed beads accent the center. Topped off with a pretty pin.





















Tag 2 ended up being a garden theme. Flowers, butterfly and a spider in its web.




















Tag 3, is made first with cq pieced base, then scattered with threads, ribbons and other fiber pieces, covered with netting and stitching done on top. Be sure to click on the pictures for
a close up.

Purse Contest Entry

The contest is over so now I can share my entry in the CQI purse contest. What a wonderful array of purses and talent represented by each entry. Congratulations to the winners.

My purse did not take a winning place, but that is ok....I enjoyed the process.

Update on Arnie & Blessings

I have to tell you all what a blessing I have received. I put out a call to 2 of my quilt groups (online) for help with making a comfort quilt for Arnie. Do you know that these wonderful ladies have supplied me with? A completed top, two complete kids quilts and blocks so now the whole family is going to be comforted. I am just so touched by the generosity of you all.

Now to give an update. Arnie will be going into surgery on the 16th, your continued prayer support is so much appreciated.

Here is a note from my DDIL, Michele......she is heading up fund raising for Arnie and Cheri.


**********
I have set up a paypal account to receive donations. All the banks I called require giving out the account number to
people to make donations and they have to have an account to do it over the internet, really dumb if you ask me.
But after looking into several other places I have set up a paypal account to accept them. The fees are small.
If anyone would like to make a donation they can at www.paypal.com and send the payment to e-mail address
krahfamily@yahoo.com
Thank you all!!! Michele
***********

If you feel lead to give a donation, here is the info and I thank you in advance from the bottom of my heart. The insurance will only pay a portion of what Arnie will need, they are contacting the cancer society also. God Bless you all for what your doing to help.

Hugs
Gail
