Farewell to 2020
Some would say "good riddance" to this pandemic year of 2020. I'm settling for "farewell." In many ways we're all ready to bring this crazy year to a close, hoping for a brighter year in 2021. I think it's helpful to reflect on what we've learned during this rather unique year. My "word for the year" was OPEN.

When you gift...
The holidays will be upon us soon and we'll all be adapting our gatherings a little differently this year. Maybe we won't be able to gather in person as much, but we can still send meaningful gifts and personalize them for the our loved ones. Some ideas for you! When you gift the original Bible Quilt Journal, you can add a name in the banner on the first template page and add some color-coordinated washi tape. This will brighten up the page and also show how to use embellishm

What is a Bible Quilt® Journal?
A Bible Quilt® is a printed journal in which to collect, organize, and create with scripture. You choose your topic, then select verses you want to incorporate together on a page.
