matthew 5:16
in the same way let your light shine before others, so that they may see your good works and give glory to your Father who is in heaven
this quilt was a high school graduation gift for my niece shelby. i wanted to wrap her in summer and give her a tangible reminder of matthew 5:16. included is one unique square that has "let your light shine" printed on it and also 5 orange squares and 16 pink squares from her grandpa jim's chambray dress shirts. the cross pattern was inspired here - always love her use of simple patchwork squares. the quilting is also very simple diagonal lines and the aqua thread color really looks nice on the white (sheet) backing. i used very thin batting, making it a perfect comfort for summer picnics or star gazing.
congratulations shelby!
