It is called
"Marking Time"
This quilt was made for the grandson of a friend of mine. He is currently imprisoned and can't receive the quilt, but I am praying for God's mercy in bringing about his release.
The quilt finished around 59 inches by 82 inches.
It is backed in his favorite color, green. I didn't have enough of one fabric, so I used a darker green to frame a lighter green, and I really like the effect.
I machine-quilted this one using my walking foot for the interior of the quilt, stitching in the ditch mostly. Then I meander-free-motion-quilted the outer border.
Lottie-dah gives her approval.
I was inspired by this photo from a quilt in the Civil War Sewing Circle book.
Such a sweet heart to make such a beautiful quilt! Knowing everything, even going behind bars, is an invitation to trust Him!
ReplyDeleteIt is really a striking great looking quilt. I like the pattern and the colors of it. The back really looks good. Good job.
