Today quilts are more often created by just one or two people. I am also curious about the choices they made for their blocks and what the messages were to the recipient.

These women were very blessed with sewing skills. They were probably the best of the best. I don`t think they were into competeting to see whose block was the best. They wanted to offer up a nice gift of appreciation to a minister they must have had a great affection for. The verse that comes to mind is `all things, bright & beautiful`. They added such items to their quilt.Perhaps they thought on these things ! How wonderful !Rosemary Foxnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13569819.post-89736348487946717892012-05-15T11:04:06.331-04:002012-05-15T11:04:06.331-04:00What fun to join you on your tour.
