I hate to any kind of hand sewing, but I really like your idea. Yes it would be "Stitched with love and bound with prayer". I think I will try this the next time I have to do a binding. I prefer to do it all by machine, but it doesn't look neat, so I usually always end up doing it by hand, which I hate. But with your little quote, maybe I can get through it better. Thanks for a GREAT quote!! I plan to borrow your idea if you don't mind.
