“I have given skill to all the skillful, so that they may make all that I have commanded you. “ Exodus 31:6


“O Thou who art the all pervading glory of the world, we bless Thee for the power of beauty to gladden our hearts.
We praise Thee that even the least of us may feel a thrill of the creative joy when we give form and substance to our thoughts and, beholding our handiwork, find it good and fair. “.
Walter Rauschenbusch

"Come, and listen, all you who fear God; let me tell you what He has done for me.
I cried out to Him with my mouth; His praise was on my tongue.
If I had cherished sin in my heart, the LORD woud not have listened and heard my voice in prayer.
Praise be to God, Who has not rejected my prayer or withheld His love from me!" Psalm 66:16-20

Rose block, drafted for use

Having had quite a bit of interest in the Rose pattern that I used to make the Christmas Roses table runner, I went ahead and attempted to draft it up for sharing.    I have been told that when it comes to quilting, I sometimes speak a language of my own, so if you do not understand anything about my cutting and minimal piecing instruction, feel free to let me know in a comment.  I'll try to translate what I meant.
If you want to copy the photos and can't, I will email them to you.  Just let me know.
Click on photos to see enlarged view.
By the way, my brother and sister-in-love DID really like the little quiltie and put it directly into use.

    Wow!
    THANK YOU!

    I might get to this sooner, now that you've been so helpful. My Mom will like this block. Perhaps I'll come up with something for her.
    So excited!

    Thank you for sharing this, Dolly. I had actually tried to figure it out with graph paper. I love the puzzle part of quilting. You are so sweet to share!!
