My current avatar started with the panel that was given to me - which is a God Grant Me The Serenity prayer. Because the prayer is surrounded with color and appears as you are looking out a window (actually framed as such) I decided to use multiple colored "bricks" with white to represent the mortor. The colors start at a mid-night navy and grade down in color. Almost all the colors used are also in the panel and the bricks surrounding the Panel are definitely used, once I graded down in color going lighter and light, then I reversed going from light green to a hunter green on the bottom portion. The picture doesn't do it any kind of justice and everyone that saw the quilt fell in love with it. This quilt was made for my brother because of the creed and it was a surprise gift for him and his wife. I will say that I am often in awe of many of the avatars on this board - they are so amazing!
