Hey friend! Hope you enjoyed the abundance of family this week of Thanksgiving and have been able to savor some quiet moments along the way.

My hubby is recovering well from his recent surgery. (Thank you for your prayers.) Our sunny saunters around the neighborhood have given us time to decompress and identify our mutual blessings.

Our college boys came home just in time for Pie Night, a fun tradition that has developed over the past few years. Like most of you, we didn't get to have extended family gather around the table with us this year  - - - yet my heart was full to have my chicks all back in the nest again!

Ready to pursue some cheer to end this crazy year well??? 

Here's all the info to explore the JOYS of December:

31 Days of Joy

Aaaand...look what I just got:   Introducing BQ Notes!

After experimenting with Sermon Note templates this year and adding them into my Monthly BQJ, I thought I'd try tucking my notes all in one place and help out some church friends who were looking for some "extras" in their note-taking.

This version of the #biblequiltjournal is oriented vertically like a traditional journal and has formatted pages from cover to cover - - - enough to take notes in a weekly Bible study, devotional series, or sermons for a full year! Video overview

And, apparently it's "Small Business Saturday" tomorrow. Although I feel like mine is a TINY Business, I'm offering a 15% off site wide sale now through the end of November. Use code SHOPSMALL to grab you some goodies!

Locals, remember you can use the Porch Pick-up option to avoid shipping costs. If you want to browse in person, I'm open to that also. Send a text or just reply to this email.

Without being able to gather in person this year, our Bible Quilt community only grows when we share with each other online or by giving BQ materials with a personal invitation.  Please continue to share posts/links on your FB timeline or forward emails to friends to get the word out.

One last reminder:

Our next ZOOM chat is this Tuesday, December 1st at 11:00 a.m. to kick off our #31daysofjoy and talk about our favorite holiday traditions. All are welcome to pop in to join.

Enjoy your weekend, friends! 🎄I've got Ham & Beans going in the crockpot and about to wrangle my crew to help decorate for Christmas.  ❤️Di
