    Had some old ties given to me and I thought... How can I use them.... this is what I came up with. This is another prayer quilt made for a gentleman who has leukemia.

    The fabric used for the shirts are P.J. fabric's that was also donated. Just looked to me like men's shirts.

    I'm not great at quilting yet only been sewing for almost 2-years. So I quilted this in straight lines as are a lot of my quilts and with deco-stitching. But I'm learning as I go.... One day I hope to be able to do the really pretty quilting I see here from all of ya'll. Just looking at your quilts keeps me going and striving for better work.
    Its been great to have people I can learn from and ask help from. So thank you for always being here for me.

    Pictures are not to good.. hope you can see it.
