Have A Little Faith PATTERN
Setting Block: Shoo Fly I chose the Shoo Fly Variation block for the setting units of Have A Little Faith: Bed Quilt. The original Shoo Fly block is an even 9-patch. The variation block is an uneven 9 -patch, with the center unit smaller than the half-squares. The Shoo Fly block is also known as Fence Row or Simplicity. In the Have A Little Faith Bed Quilt, the Shoo Fly Variation block serves as a fence row, surrounding the feature blocks throughout the quilt. Like the feature blocks, each person’s faith story is unique and personal. And yet, we share something in common with all other believers. Just like neighbors who share a common fence row, we share God’s word in the Holy Bible. God’s word is our fence row, providing us with structure, guidelines and boundaries. So when you feel like your world is spinning out of control, Have A Little Faith, and trust the Lord to be your guide.
