Such a loving work of art and so meaningful with the cross embellishment!

Oh, DonnaJeanne, this is gorgeous, and I love all the amazing work you put into this card! The amazing "piecing" and "stitching" are beautiful, along with the Stickles on each triangle. And the cross is beautiful with the flourish and the beautiful words, "faith, hope, and love," that are so dear to me. I did find the beautiful quilt you've found, and I am amazed at how beautifully yours is on paper! Here it is, I believe. I am so touched by your coming to the tea party for me! I am so encouraged and feel so loved. Thank you, dear friend! xoxo

My goodness, I can't believe you cut and pieced all those little triangles together! What a labour of love - and what a wonderful look, too. It looks really amazing - and how cool that you were inspired by a real quilt that you'd seen a picture of.
