comfort/prayer quilt ideas?
I want to make a quilt for a dear friend who was just diagnosed with an aggressive form of breast cancer. Today she finds out her treatment plan. What I have in mind is a center scripture panel surrounded by a wide border made with photo fabric with pictures of her nearest and dearest - with that border surrounded by another wide border of assorted fabrics of things she loves to do - they farm, she's the music minister of her church - sings and plays piano and organ, she has two granddaughters and a grandboy on the way, one son is a police officer - so whatever I can find that represents those things. That would entail finding many different fat quarters that have such things. As I think about it I may just do the photo border then add borders of complementary fabrics.
Thoughts? Suggestions? I've read of many comfort/prayer quilts on here and am trying to remember other ideas. Tie it so those who pray with/for her can tie a knot?
