I've finished this very special baby quilt. It was a special request by
the nice lady who runs the Seeds of Faith preschool at my church,
Fuquay-Varina United Methodist Church (FVUMC).
Lynne saw a picture of the original pattern (which was for a tiny little
11"x15" wall hanging) and said, "If you make that as a baby quilt, I'll
buy it for a friend of mine!" so make it I did. 
I changed the color scheme a little bit because I'm a fan of rainbows and sunrises (and I had to work with what fabric I had on hand).
Also I decided not to quilt over the crucifix but left it outlined to make it stand out more. Same for the Scripture lettering.

Lynne bought this one as part of the FVUMC Fall Festival missions fundraiser quilt sale that year but I can make another one for you upon request! In fact, I can make a similar quilt with a different Scriptural reference if you like. Just email me using heirloomingthemaking at gmail dot com and tell me what you'd like.

CONTENTS & CARE:
This quilt was made from 100% cotton fabric with a 100% cotton flannel backer and may be machine-washed. I recommend a warm/cold wash using any kind of laundry detergent but do not advise using fabric softener, as it leaves a residue on the fabric (makes towels not absorb and quilts that go into baby's mouth not necessarily the kind of chemical coating I'd recommend putting in there).
The quilt should be machine-dried on low or medium heat to fluff it up but you can air dry it if you like (or don't have a dryer). To air dry, just hang it over a shower rod or best of all, outside in the sun on a clothesline if your home actually still has one of those! :) It might take several hours, depending on ambient temperature and humidity, to get fully dry.
Here's a closer-up view of the one I finished. Just click on the photos to zoom in. I can put whatever Scripture quote you'd like or just put the words "He is Risen" if you prefer.
