Bible Quilt - Extras

As I was laying out all my quilt blocks I figured that I need a few more to make the quilt symmetrical. So these are a couple of extras I did.

"Dove in the Window" for Noah's wife. Blue is for all that water, Brown for all that wood used to build that enormous ark, and Flowers for the faith her and her husband had to follow through with God's plan.

This block is called "Job's Troubles" to represent Job's wife. The blue is for the sadness of losing all her children and having the man she loved so afflicted; the orange is for the havok wreaked by Satan; the background is actually more representative of Job himself. Job demostrated the Fruit of the Spirit.

 

Galatians 5:22-23"But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, Meekness, temperance: against such there is no law."

 

The background fabric was given to me by a very dear friend, who also is a shining example of the Fruit of the Spirit (even though I know she'll tell me she doesn't) :-).

Sunny- Sorry I haven't commented in awhile- I've been trying to keep track of the blocks.
Each one is so lovely and has such deeper meaning behind it and think of all the spiritual growth it represents too!
Please show it off when it's all pieced together.
It is a lovely, lovely treasure!
