St. John's Lutheran Church

Two additions

Two new quilts to share.  The fish is on silk and raw edge applique. The pattern is from a picture of a stained-glass window aboard a cruise ship. My friend Nancy took the picture and sent it to me to play with. This is a fun and freeing technique. I spent a lot of time stitching stitching the background "sea-weed". It was fun to dust off the decorative stitches that are available on my sewing machine.
The second quilt will be for a raffle at St.John's Lutheran Church in Phoenixville, Pa  We are celebrating 50 years in "St.John's Circle" although the congregation dates before this location. Happy people live in this circle of fellowship and love.

  1. On silk? Nice! Will have to post my version of this fish, too. It's almost done. Raffle quilt is really nice.. I like the houses in a circle.
