here is the story. I have a grandson. He is 9. He wants to be baptized. but his mother won't let him. sigh.... When he turned 8 I made the quilt top. I sat it aside when the drama started. I was talking to a friend and she said: finish the quilt, then have the faith that he will be baptized. soooooooo, the quilt is finished and I will exercise my faith! So the name of the quilt will be The quilt that faith built!
Probably too much info here. Sorry. But it is a UFO, I busted 8 1/2 yards of fabric. this was the first time I used a Baptist fan panto. it was easy, fast and didn't use very many bobbins. which is amazing to me. I will be using this panto again, soon!

a difficult situation - but the quilt is lovely.
I'll add my prayers to yours. The quit is lovely and when the time comes (even if he is 18) it will be a very special gift.
It will happen. He will receive a beautiful quilt on that day.
It's a beautiful quilt, and I will add my prayers that he will be baptized in God's time.
