Banner quilt for church
 
1 Attachment(s)
I was asked to make a banner for church. We have a banner committee of 2 ladies and neither sews or crafts. They order screen printed banners from a catalog. I am a little nervous that this will not be what they expected, although they did ok it before I started. It is a SAS and is on pinterest and the internet, only in purples. Due to the liturgical church calendar and when they want it to hang they requested greens. I am tired of green at the moment. Ready to load it on my LA and get it done. Thanks for looking!

Sorry, I don't know how to turn this, it was upright on my screen and I chose small for the size.

Beautiful banner!

dunster 04-11-2019 01:40 PM

That is so much better than a screen printed banner! I predict they will want to use it all year. (Or ask you to make another, and another, and another...)

Very nice! I love the secondary pattern!
Beautiful job!!

my-ty 04-11-2019 01:52 PM

You did a fabulous job. I agree with Dunster that you will be asked to make more banners.

Teen 04-11-2019 01:54 PM

Oh my goodness....this is wonderful!! The greens are gorgeous in this pattern. Eyes will be drawn to it, which is exactly its intention. I'd say you scored huge on this!!

QuiltnNan 04-11-2019 02:10 PM

very nicely done

This should be a well-received banner for your church. It's absolutely gorgeous!

Beautiful, it is so much better than screen printed premaid banners. You will be asked to make more.

I don't understand why, but when I click on view image it turns it the correct way....Such a beautiful piece of Art!

Simply beautiful! After seeing this beautiful little masterpiece. I think you will get even more requests for banners.

The people who do anything with a needle will especially appreciate your beautiful work.

Donnamarie 04-12-2019 03:39 AM

It's wonderful, I'm sure the church will love it too! Great job.

Stunning! You really did a fabulous job with your value selections. The cross radiates and glows.

So you don't get a kink in your neck. I find it so annoying when pics post sideways. If you click on it, it is straight. I am attaching this pic from another site, hoping it works. Fingers crossed. I appreciate all the nice comments. Thank-u

Absolutely beautiful and perfect for a church setting - makes me think of the story in the Bible of Jesus calming the storm at sea. Nice work!

SusieQOH 04-12-2019 04:54 AM

Wow, that is absolutely gorgeous!!!!!!!!!! You did a wonderful job on it. It's the most beautiful one of its kind I've ever seen :)

soozieQ 04-12-2019 05:12 AM

That is lovely , the ladies and whole church will be impressed

quilterpurpledog 04-12-2019 05:50 AM

Absolutely beautiful for a church banner. I cannot help but think about the Sea of Galilee. When we were in Israel there was a storm on that sea. My opinion: perfect in every way. I hope your church family will enjoy it.

Kelela 04-12-2019 07:13 AM

Absolutely beautiful and very meaningful church banner. Love it! Kelela

sJens 04-12-2019 09:56 AM

MicheleC 04-12-2019 10:07 AM

It’s beautiful! I’m sure the church members will love it.

Very beautiful. You did a great job.

Jules51 04-12-2019 11:39 AM

Beautiful banner. I love the greens!

bmillet 04-12-2019 01:14 PM

Fantastic job well done

junegerbracht 04-12-2019 01:37 PM

Lovely- how could anyone think otherwise.

Darcyshannon 04-12-2019 03:24 PM

Very good use of storm at sea blocks. I love green but I hear you.

SillySusan 04-12-2019 05:11 PM

Absolutely beautiful!

In our denomination, green is the most used liturgical color of the church year. The purple is used only during the Lenten season. Your banner should be well used in church. I'm sure this banner will be much appreciated for many, many years. Excellent!!

I always love storm at sea, but with a cross it is truly amazing. I wish I had made this pattern for my Dad, who recently passed. He would of loved it, being a seaman. The church will sure delight in this quilt, it is impeccably gorgeous and it speaks volumes of what the cross is about.

Lilrain 04-12-2019 08:55 PM

It is beautiful. I hope they appreciate bnbit.
