“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

Second "Hero's Tribute" top finished

I started out the new year with a commissioned piecing project.....actually the second-half of last years commission to make 2 "Hero's Tribute" tops.  This is a pattern that was featured in Love of Quilting magazine, designed and pieced by Liz Porter.  I believe that it was presented as a 'Quilt of Valor' idea at the time.
 JoAnn sent me all of the fabrics, and asked for one made with a blue border and one with a red border.
 I completed the first one last year when the weather was good and I was able to get a nice photo on the clothesline outside.

This one was begun about a week ago, and these are the only photos I got besides a poorly lit one on my phone.

I still have quite a few fabrics left over from the original purchases for these tops, so I'll have to put my mind to coming up with something else to piece, maybe.
