these are really beautiful! I always wanted to learn to quilt, but haven't actually made it a priority yet. Your stories remind me of all the women in my family that used quilting as their creative outlet and theology.

I love your Women of the Bible Blocks - You claim to be a total novice... If you are, you are doing great. Can't wait to see it all together.
Blessings.

Inspiring! Oh how I am inspired! I'm bookmarking this so I can come back, and come back, and come back, LOL. (How's that for pressure to see something to the end! lol, really I don't mean to apply *any* pressure!!) I see from previous comments I'm not the only one admiring.
I've never quilted, have a new neighbor who is passionate about it... between her and this... I'm determined to give it a whirl.
Thanks for the inspiration!
Blessings!

Wednesday, October 4, 2006 - I was thinking of you the other day
Posted by Redeemed
I was in Barnes and Noble and you came to mind. I was looking at
a men's devotional - I think called, "Men of the Bible"
I fell to the wayside, way back, before I moved in April or May. I should try
to catch up...
Anyway, you're quilting is just beautiful. You must be a very busy person!
God bless you and your talents.
In Him, Vetta

I could sit and admire these quilt blocks all day. Really. I absolutely love them. And the thought, reflection and faith you put into each one blows me away.
It's really cool that you decided to lay them out on the diagonal. I think I can visualize it. :-)
