Another Finish

Can you tell I have been on a Christmas/winter quilt kick lately? This is another UFO that had been sitting around for awhile and I decided to finish it. It is a prayer quilt. For those who do not know what a prayer quilt is, it is a quilt that I begin praying scriptures over for the new owner.



I never know who the owner will wind up being, but believe whoever receives this will be blessed by it.


It is a bit Wonky and that is why I love this so much! All the fabrics represent winter season or Christmas.


I love the rich colors in the backing fabric I picked out and as you can see, I did some basic quilting on this one, machine stitching straight across from top to bottom.

Like you I pray over my quilts too! Especially when they're for children....it's a bit like holding them in my arms, don't you think? blessings, marlene

You are a reminder to me today of all the projects I need to finish! The first one is an income tax issue - and Sam has dibs on that! Another is a quilt made out of my husband's ties, but I think I'll save that for winter!
