Since I bought it about 8 months ago I have searched high and low for it. It is not to be found anyplace. I have a little over a yard left that I hope to use in a quilt if I ever have a grandchild. I love the fabric and wish I could find more. It seems religious fabric is hard to come by. I would have thought with people making pray quilts it wouldn't be that hard I was wrong.

My WIP is a St Francis quilt for my son who attends Franciscan University.........so stay tuned.
What is a Pray Quilt Tru?

A prayer quilt is a quilt made for someone special in mind. As you work on the quilt you think about the person you are making it for and pray for them at the same time. Now I have heard and if I was to make one I would do it this way, I heard it should be 3 different fabrics or colors. The 3 representing the Holy Trinity, the Father, Son and Holy Spirit. But also if I was making it I would use Jacobs Ladder pattern it uses only 3 colors. I feel if I am making a prayer quilt I am making it 100% religious. And the pray I would say would be of the Wounds of Christ. The words are...... Let me kiss the wounds in Your hands dear Lord with sorrow great and true and let every movement of my hands be an act of love for You.

I hope this doesn't get deleted.

Oh ok gotcha. I like the idea and I will have to think about what fabrics I have and what I can do. I wonder when people started making these.
