Of all of the quilts I have made, this is one of
my personal favorites. It was made for a minister friend who helped me through
some really difficult times, and is displayed on the wall of his study.
It took me over a year to collect all of the fabrics for this wall hanging, and each one holds a special symbolism. I found this quilt very difficult to construct, for I had never pieced diamonds before.
I did use a strip piecing technique, but on close inspection one can see that all of my points do not meet exactly. As I worked on this quilt, and its beauty became evident in spite of my errors, one of the guiding principles behind quilting became especially meaningful. The principle is this: every quilt should have at least one error, for only God is perfect.
