Your Church needs to be facing the way it is... I'm assuming your grandmother's flower arrangement will be at the head of her casket - your Church door is perfectly placed to welcome her.
What an honor to have your block as a final tribute to her quilting. Hugs to your & family.

This block and I had "a come to Jesus meeting". It didn't want to be made and I wanted it made :)

Two mistakes but I can live with them!

I like the symbolism in your fabrics
prayers = hope for cancer victims

Your church is beautiful! I love the pink, it really pops.

I extended my sky since the cross on my real Church is on the steeple - this cross was my mom's. Bottom snow may 'melt' when all blocks are ready to assemble - will see how it all fits together.

It so much fun checking out the 'creativity' of BOM builders. Have you read Pillars of the Earth? You all now can empathize with the characters - they too struggled while erecting Churches!

I love the cross and the windows. Thanks for the book mention, sounds like a good read.

Thank you - I was trying to figure out how to say that. I lost a cousin to breast cancer summer 2010 and I wanted to make this block for her.

This is one awesome church. I love everything about this one, from the cross on the steeple to the wonderfully realistic stainglass windows. Beautiful!

i found my pattern was out in the same area above the door.
i laid out all my pattern bits on the table to check they matched up first.
what i did was re-drew the line on that bit so that it met that corner.

have a look at your pattern bits this time before you make a third, and move the line if you have too. it could save you making a full lap quilt out of failed roof-churches lol...
looks great other than that wee rebellious roofline! :)
