Scripture Quilt for our Preacher

[Acre of Blessings]

Since October is pastor's appreciation month....I had a idea of a quilt. I incorperated a couple other ladies in the church that are also quilter's and gleened A-LOT of advice and tips. We had great fellowship while piecing the top, but in the end I was left to do the quilting....which I was really scared of doing. i wanted this quilt to be "just right" because of who it is for. Anyways...here are a few pics. Let me know what you think.

Sorry that this pic is sideways....

We added a pic of the Preacher and his family. it was copied onto a piece of muslin fabric

here is a couple of pics of the simple quilting I did

I sure hope he does, this is the first quilt that I have made that has no puckers or fabric overlapping the thread. This is the only quilt that i have made that is 98% perfect.
