Quilt Square

Created in honor of Martha Lane

My mom loved Jesus and reading the Bible.  Romans 8:28 was her favorite verse and she quoted it often. She passed away unexpectedly. We chose to put “Romans 8:28” on her grave marker. Her favorite color was blue and if you ever received a shirt or sweater as a gift, it would be blue. She also loved birds – her yard is full of bird houses and she loved to sit and watch them. The joy in her life was her family. She and my dad had just celebrated their 50th wedding anniversary. They were inseparable and gave my sister and me a solid and Biblical view of marriage. And she adored her three granddaughters.

Her quilt piece represents her favorite verse and favorite color. The branches represent her and my dad and their strength in holding up their family. The three birds are for her granddaughters, Madison, Cassidy, and Mary.
