Jaynette Huff lead a group of local quilters in a project with a similar theme a couple years ago and wrote a book with all the quilt blocks.

Block Party has panels with Beatitudes and Psalms on them. You can cut them to 3 x 9".

Does anyone know of a source for peiced blocks based on the Scriptures. I need blocks to make a border for a quilt, maybe in the 6"-8" size block. I was hoping to find something that stood for the fruits of the spirit but all I found were signature blocks with the joy, peace, hope written on the blank block. If not the fruits then a source of other biblical charaters or events in the Bible. Need five to seven different blocks to use in the border. Sure appreciate the help! Chris

When we first started quilting, we made a sampler throw of Bible blocks. Do not know where the teacher got these, but I am pretty sure I have them. Some were Peter Robs Paul, Kings Crown, Jacobs Ladder and ect. I think there are 9 of them, nice size as I remember. If you will pm me I will look and call you! Be happy to share my patterns. Also have a Jerusalem Cross that is either a small wall hanging or a pillow top! This is one that you will never see, as the pattern was made by a lady I know!

I have a book titled Creative American Quilting Inspired by the Bible written by Suzzy Chalfant Payne and Susan Aylsworth Murwin. The stories behind each quilt block are so interesting and informative! Absolutely love this book.

I had a book that is probably out of print that contain Biblical blocks. The book was so popular that a second book was published. I found my blocks with the sheet containing the templates but no title of the book was not printed anywhere. Blocks were such as Rose of Sharon, Jacob's Ladder, Carpenter's Wheel, Star of Magi, Bethlehem Rose, Hosanna, Cross with in a Cross, Devil's puzzle. Job's Tear, Road to Jerusalem, Cross and Crown, Joseph's Coat, Solomon's Temple and Tree of Life.
