Originally, this quilt was destined for the women’s shelter in a neighbouring city. All winter a colleague and “Sister” in ministry was living in the local RC rectory because her apartment was damaged in a fire. April 1st she returned to her home and I gave her this quilt as a “welcome back” gift. It is simply quilted, with parallel lines of stitching at varying widths. Quick and effective.
Luke 8:39
“Return to your home, and declare how much God has done for you.” So he went away, proclaiming throughout the city how much Jesus had done for him.

I love the way you intertwine scripture with your quilting on your blog. Beautiful! 😉
Thank you and thanks for stopping by. Welcome.
Your quilt is gorgeous. Did you make it up or have a pattern?
No pattern, just a bunch of fabric and blocks left over from other projects. I made 20 – 12 1/2″ blocks and sewed them together. Thanks for the compliment and for stopping in. Welcome!
Love this! What a great way to use up those extra blocks. I have a couple of bags of them I keep tripping over in the front of my closet–better to get them out and make good use of them.
It really is a fun quilt. Way to go!
Thanks. It is a quick quilt high, especially when you have blocks already made. 🙂 Good to see you again. I hope things are well with you.
What a beautiful quilt! It is sure going to a good home!
