Rebekah

My name is Rebekah and I dabble in all things needlework and craft related. I've tried a wide array of different types but the ones that I really love are those in my blog header--sewing, knitting, watercolor, and rosary making.

I included St. Gemma in my blog's header as a way of remembering the holy life of Saint Gemma Galgani. She was a young woman who lived in the late 19th century, who, like me, enjoyed sewing, embroidery, and knitting. She was canonized by Pope Pius XII in 1940 and is the patron saint of students and those who suffer with back ailment.
