Yes, I am going to try this. The original post was called a Jelly Roll Race if I recall correctly. I am making one of these as a scrapbuster for my church to auction off to raise funds for a new building. It brings to mind 1 Cor 9:24 about running the race to finish it, so that's going to be the title of the quilt. I'm also planning on doing a Trip Around the World (Mark 16:15) and also a Log Cabin (Hebrews 10:25), all scrappy. I need to do some serious scrap- and stash-busting, as I just reorganized my fabric closet last night and I didn't realize quite how much fabric I had!

Someone said recently they wanted to use the arts as a method of sharing Christianity, and that struck a chord with me, so I will be going about things in the same manner. I am thinking of doing a Sampler with a cross in the center, kind of trying to say that I may go off and try different things, but in the end I always come back to Christ. For the Log cabin quilt I plan on making, I will go to Hobby Lobby and get some fabric with scripture on it and fussycut it for the centers. We'll see how things turn out, and I can't wait to share them. Show and tell is my favorite part, partly because that means it's finished!
