Good Work by Danielle Coke
You were created to do good work. Work that empowers and inspires, liberates and transforms, restores and softens.
Yes, work can be hard – as it was meant to be. The verb itself calls us to action, rejecting passivity and demanding sustained effort. It provokes, agitates, and disturbs. But this work – the call for justice – is good work.
It defends the oppressed and frees the captive. It tears down walls and destroys barriers. It changes things.
So when you are feeling weary, or hopeless, or spent, remind yourself that the darkness is being flooded by marvelous light.
Yes, this is work. And it is good.

If your good work comes in the form of making beautiful things to put into this often dark world, then please keep on doing it. No matter what your good work is, thank you so much for doing it.
We have all sorts of fun fabrics here today (even one that teaches you how to make gazpacho!), some awesome quilting kits, lovely patterns, great books and oh so much more! Speaking of books, we have a fun bookbinding class happening this Saturday if you are interested in learning a very fun new skill.
We’re open from 10-7 today for all things creative reuse except donating supplies, no donations on Wednesdays please!
