Finish #1

As the month draws to an end, I have one finish to show from my UFO list. 

My husband teaches 3rd - 5th grade Sunday School at our church.  One week they were studying the gifts that each of us has been given by God.  As an activity for the lesson he had them draw a picture of one of the gifts they studied.  He feels sure the kids think he just got rid of their artwork but instead he came home and asked me to make the squares into a quilted wallhanging.  

The quilting is a little wonky.  Hey, I'm a beginner with a new machine.  What can I say?  I don't think his kids will mind the wonky cornerstones.  They will just be excited that their artwork has been saved.  I'm excited that there is actually one UFO finished and marked off my list.

What a great idea!!!

Isn't it amazing how the smallest things can be so important in the life of a child.

I think they'll love it!
