Sunday School Children Quilt Displayed

IMG_2776

Recently the quilt given to Pr. Joan Mau on the occasion of her retirement in 2014 from Good Shepherd, was hung outside the Sanctuary.  The quilt was created by appliqueing hand shapes of the Sunday School children on to a backing and then quilting the entire piece.  Names of the children are embroidered into the quilt.
