Bible Quilt Sample Pages

Gathering together with other women for a day of fellowship and solid Biblical teaching is a wonderful way to fill up our spiritual tank, isn't it?

Typically before a conference, I print out a template and hole-punch it to insert into my disc-bound Bible study journal. (Sometimes I'll just take a couple BQ pages on a clipboard.)

Since "hope" was in the title of the conference, I selected the Hope balloon.

I adhered stickers which were provided in the welcome packet to capture the info about the conference. This helped illustrate and structure the pages.

It's been a while since I shared any of my sermon notes. Our pastor is doing a series on the minor prophets, so I added a tab to make a section in my BQ journal.

This is all I take with me to chuch: my BQ Notes Journal and a pen pouch:

Sometimes I prep the page a bit before the service, but most of the time I do the whole page at church. I try to add a few embellishments later on, but this doesn't always happen.

How is your note-taking process going?

I often listen to podcasts while I'm out walking. Sometimes I'll want to remember the main points and jot down notes when I get back home. Occasionally these will turn into a full #biblequiltjournal page.

I'm part of a small women's group that listens to podcasts, then meets to discuss them together. I find that it's helpful to summarize these podcasts on a BQ page.

Reviewing these colorful notes before our accountability group meeting helps freshen my perspective and provides me with a tangible way to compare/contrast podcast topics.

As shown in the photos, these are freestyle pages that I've used my Happy Planner punch to add into my small group notebook. I'm simply using Avery tabs with titles printed from my label maker. Throughout the year as we cover a variety of topics, I can move the pages around to categorize them. For now I'm just inserting them in…

Tis the season of Advent, a time of waiting and preparing our hearts.

I've had a few people ask how to create BQ pages while taking sermon notes, so I'll share a few recent Advent pages. In my BQ Notes, I'm using the Christmas-y pages toward the back.

This morning before church I had a chance to color in the holly leaves and stamped the date. I put down some strips of washi tape that I can use however it works best.

Since the Bible passages are printed in the bulletin, I've been adding them to the blank side. I repositioned the washi tape to secure the edges, then added my scribbled notes around the excerpts.

When you find a cute card in your Mom's stash of papers, it comes in handy for illustrating a #biblequiltjournal page!

Our sermon this morning just happened to be on forgiveness, reminding us that guilt is one of the greatest emotional gifts from God because it compels us to draw near to God.

Someone shared with me how they were Bible Quilting a Women's Retreat notes and it made me realize that by Bible Quilting sermon notes or Bible Study notes would help me meditate on God's word more thoroughly. The attached picture is the notes from a recent sermon at our church and also made me think of new friends I've made through Bible Quilting.
