To Jingle no it doesn't matter if you are Catholic or not. Prayer is for everyone and to know we have a Saint for quilters is awesome I know for myself I need all the help I can get and often ask for prayer not only from the Saints but from my friends too. Enjoy now I am going to go see if my son can get me a wooden plaque like this from his local church which just happens to be St. Rose of Lima Church. Thanks for sharing the post with us jcrow. I live in NM and can say that your niece probably had the most glorious time in Santa Fe.

I'm glad to hear about St. Rose of Lima. I was in Lima in October, and saw more churches than you would believe, but never heard that St. Rose was the patron of quilters. We can make use of her help.

And with all due respect, though I love St. Rose of Lima, here are some lesser known saints the "quilter's fixes" they oversee...
