"Strawberry Patch", started over 2 years ago
My hero, aka sister-in-law Kim, is an amazing person. When I first started dating her brother in '96, she was in her last year of nursing school. She went on to work close to 15 years in the medical ICU unit of our hospital, where she saw a huge variety of severe cases, many close to death.
made in the Patchwork Wheel pattern by Don't call me Betsy
fabrics are Strawberry Fields by Fig Tree & Co.
But that's not why she inspires me, because I've never felt any urge or calling to work in the medical field.
Binding is a California Girl print, also by Fig Tree
She inspires me with her commitment to Jesus and the way she lives out her Christian faith. I'm sure being a nurse is a natural extension of that for her.
Backing is from the Butterscotch & Roses line, also by Fig Tree
If there's anyone I could be more like, it would be her.
That's a stick, only a stick, in the bottom of the photo...
I'm not sure my husband fully realizes how blessed he is to have the women in his life that he does. I count his sister, mother & daughter among the best women in the world.
Linking up to Crazy Mom Quilts for her Finish it Friday.
