Well, hello ...

Well, hello. :) Welcome. My name is Whittney. I am 21 years old, a fervent Christian, a community college grad. I aspire to serve the Lord, create music, inspire children, become a kindergarten teacher, learn to sew, ballroom dance, speak french, share the gospel, and travel the world. I am an opera singing, piano playing, guitar strumming, Bible obsessing, song composing, journal writing, knitting & crocheting, sporadic, compulsive, and curious being. Before I die, I want to please the Lord, travel, marry, bear children, write a book, write a song with sheet music, see an Opera, own a piano, see the northern lights, the trevi fountain, the Eiffel tower, stand firm in Christ, and see my future children sing, laugh, and seek the Lord.

A few sisters in Christ & myself realized that we wanted to start writing of our lives, our Lord, our Etsy shops, our favorite recipes, our experiences, our inspirations, and our lessons learned; hence, a blog was born. Our name, "A Trustworthy Saying", is a quote borrowed from the Apostle, Paul. We hope to place here trustworthy sayings pertaining to life, love, creating, and Christ. I plan to share scriptures, revelations, and a broad assortment of thoughts in written form. Writing is one of my absolute favorite pastimes, which makes me very excited about this.

I am the owner of a little boutique on Etsy called narrowAvenue. I handcraft accessories, mostly crocheted & knitted, but I also have things made with feathers and recycled vintage fabric.  My little shop is just an eclectic collection of things that I've made up as I've gone along. I always take small, basic concepts and then create as many different variations as I can come up with. Amanda taught me to crochet & knit earlier this year and I fell in love with it. I find it to be extremely therapeutic and beautiful. I have found so much solace in spending time alone in my room, creating, and jamming to worship music. <3 But I also love that I can take my crochet & knit projects with me and create while spending time with friends.  Alison is sort of our Etsy mother, because she encouraged us so much to start our shops. She also does most of my photography, & is quite the epic photographer. Stay tuned for shop discounts, exclusive, sales, giveaways, and how-to's <3

You will find, in my corner of the blog, a frequent segment called, "A Creation in the Making". In this segment you will find fun little photos of my creations, well, in the making. :) You will also find scriptures about The Creation, and the occasional meditation about being a New Creation in Christ. I eventually will include photos of my sister's creations in the making as well. So, in conclusion, we welcome you, future blog subscribers, to the collaboration blog of Amanda, Sarah, Alison, & Whittney: A Trustworthy Saying.

Yours Truly,
Whittney
