Default John's Quilt

Hi y'all. I thought I'd share what happened when I started playing with leftover charm squares. I gifted this to our friend John who goes to the same church as we do and who also plays bass in one of the worship teams. John is on dialysis twice a week and tells me it's always cold in the room so I made him a quilt. He loves it and says it's been a great way to share the love of Jesus with the other patients. His favorite color is red and I just happened to have a red piece of flannel in my stash that was EXACTLY the size I needed! I used the scripture verse John 3:16 underneath the cross. Thanks for looking.

That was sweet of you to make it for him. I hope he is doing better and stays warm.

You did a wonderful job on it. I love it!!! The red is especially meaningful in more ways than one. God bless your friend.
