Default Bible block

Y'all have always been so helpful when someone is looking for something ----
so, I am in need of pattern for a quilt my church is making to give to a
long time member who is leaving.

She and I have been in Bible study class together forever, so I have been
assigned the "Bible" block. Only problem is -- I can't find one!!

I have done several searches under Bible quilt blocks, religious blocks,
etc. Part of the problem is so many quilt books are titled "the Bible for
quilters" etc.

I will be happy to pay for a pattern, even if you have a book block, I'd
appreciate it. I even looked at the Library quilts, but all those books are
standing up or lying down with bindings showing and that's not really what I
am looking for.

I am desperate enough to try to make a paper pieced pattern from clip art.
Anybody ever done that?

TIA,
Tricia

Have you looked here?

If they don't have one, it would be worth emailing them to ask.

Otherwise, why not just look for a block featuring a book - you can
always add "Holy Bible" to the spine, or write a bible verse on open pages.

Go to Paper Panache web-site. These are all FPP blocks. You will find The
Nativity, Good Friday (Jesus on the Cross), Hanukah and various Angels. Under
Simple Requests: you will find a Bible with a Cross on it, also some simple
Cross designs. Hope this helps.

Thanks Kathy -- that's the link I was thinking of, but I couldn't find it.
I'm going to bookmark it this time!

Thank you. I knew one or more of you would come through for me. You all are
so helpful.

I guess I didn't make myself clear. I didn't want a block inspired by the
Bible. I wanted a block that was a 'picture' of the Bible. I looked for just
a book block to add the words to, but this is great.

thanks again,
Tricia
