    Our church makes these, too. We add a spiral bound book with the names of those who tied a knot and prayed for the recipient.

    I like that idea. At our church, the ladies meet and work on their quilts. If it's a crocheted one, each person, when their quilt is finished, gives a length of yarn to someone else making one to incorrporate in theeir design or edging. The priest or deacon blesses them before they're given out.

    By the way, Charisma, who useed to be on this board a lot, has a diagram of a quilted cross she puts on thre back.

    Your prayer quilts are beautiful! As a recipient of a prayer quilt when I was gravely ill they are a wonderful example to represent how prayers help those in need.

    Heard of prayer quilts but, didn't know about the ties on front or cross on back! Will definitely include those in prayer quilt I am making for a church member who has breast cancer! What a wonderful idea! Beautiful quilts!
