You may recall that I made some Quilted Lovies for the church my husband has been a lay minister for since October 2012.  The Quilted Lovies were to be given to each child or person who my husband baptized.  Hubby handed out four the day he took them to the church…and I made two extra ones for future baptisms that he stashed in the church office.

Last weekend, there was a baptism scheduled.  The Quilted Lovies were in south Texas…and I had no way to document the child being baptized and their baptism date.  What to do, what to do?

After contemplating the issue, I finally decided to make a quick sample of the Quilted Lovie, so someone at the church could write on the back of the Quilted Lovie by first practicing on a sample.  Reason being that writing on fabric that moves around is completely different than writing on paper!

It was a great plan…but, once hubby got to the church, no one knew who had scheduled the baptism and no one knew who was supposed to be baptized!  No worries – we are armed and ready for the next baptism with this sample and fabric markers!
