OOOHHHHH but it was worth it. Of course every time daughter came in the back door I had to run out of the sewing rm and close the door. I was so afraid she would catch me doing it/Lillian

Thank you Marji. I learned a lot doing it. One thing is never do one this big again. I simply do not have room. Full size I can handle without to much difficulty./Lillian

I've wanted to do something like this for a long time. Maybe some day, when life settles down long enough for me to finish what I start, I'll be able to. Till then, I will truly admire your project!! Beautiful work!!

you just have to make up your mind to do it and get started, I have had a lot of other things to do also but I just kept plugging along as often as I could. Knowing I had until Christmas helped I didn't feel rushed to get it done/Lillian

Absolutely beautiful. Did you get the verses from a design in stitches? I have collected several -thinking of making a wall hanging or a quilt with them. Just hadn't decided which. You have done a great job.

This just takes my breath away! What a blessing to lay down your head at night and be covered by the Word! I love, love, love it!!!!! I'm going to use a word here to describe this that I learned during the Olympics and I think it's really appropriate here. I'm Gobsmacked!
Hugs to you and your sweet hands that made this.

WOW! Miss Lillian, this is just awesome and in my colours too! How wonderful to be covered by God's wonderful word in these bible verses, literally! To know that the Word is enveloping you as you sleep and to know that your Mother - you in this case (because it's for your daughter) made it must be so comforting to her. This is an heirloom for generations to come. God bless you, love always Chris

Thank you Yvonne, I know they will like it and if I know my daughter she will sit down and cry. She is too,too much like her mother LOL/Lillian
Lillian, didn't you know that daughters are supposed to be like their Mom's? Of course, you has several so I am sure that some take after you and some their Dad or have a mixture of the both of you. I just love this quilt!

I just saw your quilt and I love it. It is beautiful and such a special gift. Please tell me where you found the embroidery designs. I would love to try to do something like that. Thanks so much

I hope Lillian will see this post, because she made this quilt last year. You can find the date the post was made up by the person's name, in light grey letters. I think where she might have gotten at least some of the designs was here:

Good luck with your search, hugs, Marji

I thought to bring this back to the top, both because Lillian's quilt deserves a second look, and because someone asked a question about where to get the designs. I hope I guessed right? If not, maybe Lillian will see this, I hope. Hugs, Marji

Marji, thanks for bringing my quilt back. Most of the scripture designs came from sewbird web site that you have posted and they were all free. She posts also on Allbrands sew Forum as michsnowbird but her designs start over on about page 10 or 12 It's much easier to go to her web site http://sewbird.webs.com and download from there Hugs Lillian
sewbird website is remarkable

So glad this was brought again as I missed it the first time. Lillian, this is wonderful. I am so a wanna bee quilter. I do love to look at all the hard work that goes into a quilt and the end result is so gratifying.
