I make a lot of baby quilts and now I’ll be adding a prayer quilt square from the same material for the new mom. I will also be adding a little cross inside every quilt I make from now on. I’ve always prayed as I sew and piece the quilt together for the person I’m making the quilt for....asking God to wrap them in His loving care and to give them peace and comfort. So inspire! Thank you!!!!
Oh, we love that idea!! Thank you so much for sharing that with us! - Morgan
Dear Jen, I have been making these prayer quilts like crazy. So far I bet that I have made around 200 quilts and have given them all away. I have gotten very positive feed back for these. Thank your customer and you for sharing this great project.
That is so wonderful to hear! You're a machine! ;) We're glad that these have been able to bring some joy and peace to so many people. - Morgan
I love these and plan to make some for my sister's church. They love to have things to give parishioners who are ill or grieving. I might try to stencil the prayer directly on the back fabric.
That sounds lovely! We're so happy that this project has inspired you. 💖 -Michelle
I am just learning to sew and I love that I can do this. I am a Christian and thank to you my church is now going to do them as a craft project. Ty and God bless you for all you do
Thank you so much for this sweet comment, Jo! -Madison
I've made and will continue to make these for my fellow police dispatchers. They loved them! I'm so grateful for this idea and pattern. It feels great making something that helps people spiritually.
Thank you for watching! We're glad they loved them! These have been very popular! Happy sewing and stay safe! ~Leah
Thank you for this tutorial! It is perfect for our little mission called Sweet Child of Mine (we make infant gowns, blankets, etc. for babies that don't make it home from the hospital). We are making these little pocket quilts out of the same fabric of the baby's gowns so that the mother has a piece of the fabric to keep. Your tutorial will bless many.
That is amazing! I'm sure they all will cherish them! Thank you for sharing! Stay safe and happy sewing! ~Leah
That is amazing. We see a sewing group. The women sew little blanket, stars, hearts ans Butterflies. The familys are very sad. This unborn babys are called Sternenkinder. It means starchildren. They are always there, even when they are little angels. Like stars. You can't see them in the day, but they are always there.
❤❤
Thank you so much for this video. The Lord had put this idea into my mind on several occasions, and this time I put prayer cloths into google and yours was one which came up. It just seemed so right and doable. Praise God, so lovely. I started making them straight away, and the Lord is using them to His Glory. God Bless from Joyce in the U.K.
You are welcome! We appreciate your support and happy that you enjoyed this project! They are lovely and thank you for your comment! - Abby
I love this idea!!! I can’t wait to make some!!!
You will have fun with these! They are a great project! Thanks for your comment! - Abby
I love these and plan to make some. Thank you for the tutorial. The best part, though, is that you shared the importance of God in your life.
So glad you enjoyed the tutorial! -Lindsey
My daughter and I have been making these for years. Between the two of us we've given out over two thousand. Sometimes people are having a hard time and they just need a little reminder or pick me up. I give out a lot at the hospital since I'm there all the time with my husband. I've made them with military colors, fire fighter colors, and police colors. Sometimes people just need them like an extra hug. Sometimes people say that's the nicest thing that's happened to them in they don't know how long. My husband has to go to five different clinics including the dentist and I've given one to everyone in their offices. Doesn't take much to make people happy and it's like a compliment, it makes you feel as good as they do. Have a great day❤️
That's awesome Betty! Blessings to you and your family for helping to spread love!!!
So kind of you to make these and give them out to so many people! Think of all the lives you've touched.
I
That's is just amazing how you've blessed so many people. Much Love, Jen Bosworth
💝💖
It is now January 4, 2023 and I just found this you tube. thanks so much for sharing this great idea. I know that I will be making many. Thank you for the pattern and the great and simple instructions and confidence
Hi Lori - We're so happy that this project inspires you. Thanks so much for your comment. -Michelle
I saw this video several months ago and saved it so I could make these for Christmas gifts. Today was the day. Great instructions.
Thank you so much for sharing. God Bless you and Merry Christmas!!
Wonderful! Glad you enjoyed it! Happy Holidays! - Yajaira
It is December 22nd 2020 and I am watching this tutorial. I ordered two pocket packs a while ago but have been working on projects for Operation Christmas Child and then on actual Christmas presents. My best bfffff just lost her son in a car accident last Monday. Needless to say things are really sad right now. But she and I are going to make pocket prayer quilts this weekend to keep our hands and hearts busy and as a way of thanking the Lord for His constant love and for our friends who stay by our sides through thick and thin. God bless you💕
Hi Cathy! Prayers for you, your family and friends. Thank you for sharing and Happy Holidays! - Sophie
Hi Jenn! Love your video on how to make pocket prayer quilts. I have a take on that mission of getting crafter, sewers and quilters a desire to make Pocket Quilts for Veterans. Since Veterans are as diverse as America is, I thought about all the faiths and human conditions that can be shared and expressed to Veterans. So I looked online, as it turns up, all on Amazon stores, the best charms to put inside the pocket quilts. So I found the Star of David, the Islamic/Muslim crescent moon as well as eastern practices like Buddhism, Tao, Confuscism, etc. as well as universal human conditions like patriotism with a patriotic star, love; with a heart, and the hand with the eye in the palm, that's about protection. I made up labels for each one of these for folks to print out and cut up and attach them. I and my sewing friend have committed to make up and send out hundreds of these to three dedicated Veteran Healthcare facilities in two different states. If the two of us can make over 1,200 in the last six months, just think of how many more can. I just figured out how to create a UA-cam channel but I did it today and you are the first person I am sending this mission thought out to because you have the BEST video on how to make Pocket Prayer Quilts that I hope turns into a sewing, crafting, quilting movement that can be met for our Veterans. (During COVID-19, we too made face masks for those in need! We are kindred folk. From Feb. 2020 to Nov. 2021 I made 4,500 and they were 4 ply with pliable nose, reversible, washable and fitted. Made up quite a few sizes for face sizes 2 years old to 99. Not one was ever sold.) Hope you know that there are a lot of folks out there that appreciate you making this video and I refer folks to it all the time. Want to put it up on our new UA-cam Channel that I just put up this morning. Bless you and thank you Jenn. Take care.
December 2022- These are adorable, Jen.
Can’t wait to make a lot of these. Your so right. Every one needs a little love. Thank you ❤️
Yes they do! Let us know how yours turn out.
Precious! I have some crosses but have many hearts. My daughter is writing a little poem about hearts and love that I can use. Thank you so much for this idea. God bless and keep you. May HIs face shine upon you and give you peace during this virus.
We love that idea!
where do you get the hearts and crosses?
Patricia Nolan that's a wonderful idea.
I love this everything about this. Yet another reason I am a lifetime Shabby customer. God Bless and stay well!!
Thank you so much Melanie! We appreciate you!
This is such a perfect time to extend a beautiful sentiment. Can’t wait to make a few!
We couldn't agree more! Let us know how yours turn out! - Morgan
What a sweet project to make and give! I think I will try printing the message on the backing square so it will always be with the piece.
That's a lovely idea, Sharon! Thank you very much for watching. -Michelle
I absolutely love these pocket quilts. I can't wait to make lots of them. Thank you for a very inspirational and uplifting gift idea.
Thank you! These have been very popular and everyone loves them! Happy sewing and stay safe! ~Leah
I just finished the cloth face masks and was looking for the next project. This is it! Love the message of hope during this quarantine time!
We're so glad you like this! We think this is such a great way to share peace, hope, and love during this time! - Morgan
Thank you for this video, Jen and thanks to your customer who shared the idea with you. I love this and can't wait to begin making some and sharing with others.
Thank you so much for watching! We hope you have fun making these.
These are so sweet. Thank you. Oh and "popping" the centers brings joy. It's the little things.
Thank you, Laura! These have been very popular and everyone loves them! Stay safe! ~Leah
This is a lovely idea! I can't wait to make some to give out. I know a lot of people who are scared, hurt financially or ill and this would be like a "worry stone" or extra reminder that they are cared for. Thanks for sharing! I'd love to see more things like this shared.
We agree with you! So many people need that extra reminder that someone is thinking of them.
Jen, I absolutely love this!! So beautiful and the message is perfect! Definitely making some! Thank you for such a great tutorial!! You are a blessing to us and may God bless you abundantly!
You are so welcome! We're so glad to be able to share this with you. - Morgan
Oh my that is wonderful! Thank you for sharing this. Praying for your health.
Thank you for watching! Be well! - Morgan

.
We're very happy you're enjoying these sweet pocket prayers! Thank you for watching! 💖 -Michelle
Love this! Ordered the packs. Thank you. I’m the wife of a retired military chaplain. I have people who could use these especially now. Thank you for sharing.
So glad you liked this! Thank you for ordering from us, and for making these for people in need.
Thank you for your time and effort to post this tutorial, well done by the way. I've read the other posting and everyone has supper great ideas of ways to share the Pocket Prayer Quilts. I came across your tutorial by accident, but I think it was a divine appointed accident because I am excited to get started on this project. I think I shall give two to each person, one for them to keep and one for them to share.
Thank you for watching! These are perfect for a pass it forward project! Happy sewing! ~Leah
I had never heard of "pocket prayer quilts" nor "Shabby Fabrics" ......... I am so thankful to God that I opened up a pinterest Gmail and this link was the third idea I saw ........... I believe in God and most definitely prayer ....... thank you for sharing this ........
We are happy that you found us! You are going to have so much fun and we appreciate your support! Thanks for your comment! - Abby
Amen!! We all need reminders of God's love. Bless you!!
We agree with you! Such an important time for those reminders.
What a tremendous, beautiful, and meaningful idea! Thank you for sharing! I think I might try making the outer layers without an inner layer of fabric, turn it out, press it, and then slip a small square of fleece or felt (cut just shy of the width and length) in the middle before top stitching to close up the open edge. These will be fun to play with!
That sounds like a good idea! Let us know how yours turns out! - Morgan
OMG! I LOVE this idea! I will be making TONS of these to share with EVERYBODY from the grocery store clerk to the healthcare workers I know to all of my family members! Thank you SO much for sharing this with us! We really need tangible reminders of hope right now and this is a wonderful one!
Great idea!! We really do need tangible reminders right now.
I love this idea!!!! I can’t wait to make some. Thank you so much for sharing this. What a GREAT idea to let people know you care and are praying for them.❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Thanks so much! 😊We're so glad you like it! It let us know how yours turn out and how people like them.
Thank you Jen!!! This is a wonderful gift to give to someone right now. And a perfect little something to put in a Mother's Day card or birthday card , thinking of you card, etc......
You are so welcome! We love the idea of adding these to cards. That would be so special! - Morgan
This is perfect timing!! This is a project my husband & I can work on together! We are blessed! Stay safe and healthy everyone. Blessings....
This will be such a fun project to do with your husband!

How do I get the kit
What a beautiful sentiment! I am definitely going to make a bunch of these and giving you and your channel full credit. May God bless you. ❤
You are so kind! These will be such a nice blessing for people, especially right now. - Morgan
What a lovely thing to give someone. Thank you so much. Many blessings to you
You are so kind! So glad you like it. Be well! - Morgan
Thank you Jen for sharing the love of God in your video.
Thank you so much for watching.
Just wanted to say about the pocket prayer quilt / the string that is tied to the quilt is a blessing prayer in a larger prayer quilt when some one is sick ladies of a church get together an make a prayer quilt each will pick a string an say a prayer for the person that is sick an tie a knot they add extra strings for anyone that would like to say a prayer for the sick .. this is the purpose of the tie string .
That is awesome! Thank you so much for sharing!!
Wow :) Didn't know that...Thank you
That's so sweet, thank you for sharing that with us! - Morgan
Mary Moore m
That is so beautiful, thank you for sharing. I just made a quilt for my first Grandbaby who is due in May. I'm going to ask family members to pick a string and say a prayer for him (and mommy and daddy). Especially during this time.
If you have non-locking forceps in your quilt room (so handy to have!) that will make it super easy to turn these tiny blocks. Love this tutorial and I will be making a LOT of these to give out.
That's a great idea! Thank you for sharing! So glad you'll be making these! They're so much fun. - Morgan
I Know this Tutorial is 2yrs Old..Well I Have made a few..I Love Them. I was able to get a little pack full of Crosses and they are all Different from Hobby Lobby..🙏❤. Thank You Sew Much Jenn. I Love Your Tutorials..
We're happy you've been enjoying this project! Thank you for commenting! 💖 -Michelle
I love this! I am brand new at sewing and quilting, and I can actually do this and make someone's day better. God bless you. 🙏
We’re so glad to hear that this project inspires you! Thank you very much for your kind comment!! -Michelle
Hi everyone. Our quilt ministry has been making hundreds of these. They are wonderful! But one great shortcut that one of the ladies came up with. Instead of sewing and turning right side out. Just stitch a quarter inch all around the square and trim with pinking shears to finish. No need to turn inside out which takes a lot of time and limber fingers. Lol.
What a fun suggestion! Thank you for sharing, and we're glad you've been able to spread encouragement to others with these Pocket Prayers! 💖 -Michelle
That’s what our ladies group decided to do. Went so much faster.
😅😊😊

Thank you Jen. This was timely - I was looking for something to make and send to those I love. People who have lost loved ones. People who are ill. This is just perfect.
So glad you found this when you needed it! It's going to be such a lovely gift to receive.
Thank you so much for this idea. I've been crocheting prayer squares to send to our deployed military members. This will be another item I can make to send to them.
I didn't have any sound when I was watching the video and I don't know why so if you mentioned where to purchase the little cross pendants, I couldn't hear. Can you tell me where you purchased the crosses or if you offer them at Shabby Fabrics.
Thank you and stay safe.
Jackie
These are great for sending to the Military! We are temporarily out of stock for the kits, however we do have an email sign up so you can receive a notification when these do come in! ~Leah www.shabbyfabrics.com/Pocket-Prayer-Quilt-Pack-P85831.aspx
Jackie Moosman I order mine by the 100's on etsy. The last batch I ordered was 1000 because my daughter and I share.
@@bettywhittington625 what size works best? I’ve been searching online
Thank you, Jen, for sharing this wonderful idea with us. Your timing could not be better. Definitely on my todo list. Lots of love ones I can reach out to. Have a Blessed Day
You are so welcome! We're so glad you liked it. Let us know how yours turn out. - Morgan
This is such a wonderful idea!!!! And I love it that I can use up scrap fabrics! Thank you for sharing!!!!!
You are so welcome! Thank you for watching! Let us know how yours turn out! - Morgan
Great idea to make and send to retirement centers! Everyone needs some hope right now!
That's such a lovely idea! - Morgan
zippylalala that is what I am doing. I work at a senior living community and as soon as I saw this video, I got excited to make them.
Jen, thank you for sharing. I rely on the Lord for many things. This would be a wonderful gift for many people.
It really is such a lovely gift! Thank you for watching. Be well! - Morgan
Thank you love this. We walk encouraged not discouraged during this season. GOD IS HOPE AND LOVE. Take care and stay safe.
So true! Be well! - Morgan
So adorable! I have many friends who need this. Thank you for sharing! ❤️
Thanks for watching! We're so glad you'll be making these! - Morgan
Could attach a heart charm as a "heart"felt thank you too.
We love that idea! - Morgan
Could have a heart inside instead of the cross - we're not all christians - and it would make a sweet friendship keyring or bag tag.
I'm not religious, but many in my family are. These would make incredible gifts for them. I'm excited to make these for them! Thank you so much!
These will be such nice gifts for them!
Love the hour glass option! I ordered the whole pack today. Thank you!
You are so welcome! We're glad you like them, and thank you for ordering from us! - Morgan
I found this inspirational. Thank you, Jen!
Glad it was helpful!
So sweet. You could add a button or a charm in the middle tied with the floss.
Great idea! That would make these even more special! - Morgan
Maybe a thin flannel for "batting"? Could work, and be a tad "softer"😊. Adorable idea, now I want to make some!
Yes, that's a great idea!! Let us know if you do make these! We'd love to hear how they turn out. - Morgan
Thank you SO MUCH for sharing this special project with us. I’m looking forward to making these to share with others🙏🏻💕. What a great idea!
You are so welcome! Let us know how yours turn out! - Morgan
I ordered 4 packs! Such a sweet thing to give out! Thank you!
Thank you so much for supporting our business! We appreciate it so much and we hope you love making and giving these. - Morgan
It would be awesome to send these with the face masks and PPEs that our healthcare workers so desperately need!!
That's a lovely idea! - Morgan
That is exactly what my daughter and I were doing is sending a box of fabric fabric masks and some pocket prayers.
What a wonderful idea!
Nice but hardly practical for them to carry at work at the moment
Rasita Winner sounds to me like just what they might be needing in their pockets. I say that because we all carried ours in our pockets when we worked, shopped or whatever we were doing. The men had to get used to the idea before they would take them from their night stands and carry in pockets
I ccould see printing the prayer on fabric and sewing it on as the backing.
That would be SO pretty! - Morgan
I was thinking the same thing!
Betty Manoulian w
Same here, might even try to learn how to use my brother scan-n-cut to make the backs. Then the saying would always be there.
Betty Manoulian I had the same idea too. Because I want to do these for my grandkids and they will lose the card. As would I, no doubt.
Oh thank you so much Jen for this wonderful tutorial. I will definitely be making lots of these. GOD BLESS AND STAY SAFE!
You are so welcome! We're so glad you like it. You stay safe, too! - Morgan
Sending my THANKS from Brazil!😘Thats remaind me the little sacs mt Gramma used to do for us...just like yous!💖💋💋💋
Love that! Thank you for sharing! - Morgan
There are a few things if don’t understand:
Math
Physics &
How could someone not like this video!
haha. Thank you for that morning laugh.
Probably someone who is not a believer in Yeshua's death, burial and resurrection for our sins. They don't want the cross, just a nice saying. Thank G-d for Jesus!
Marian Boncato there's always gonna be haters. Can't control them, only you. Say a prayer for them as you stitch up your next ppq (pocket prayer quilt). I always say prayers for whoever receives these, why not them too.
Could I just use pinking shears to cut them out, then zigzag all sides? With arthritis, I think it would be too difficult for me to turn inside out. This is a precious project. God bless you.
I think that is a great idea!
That would be lovely! Let us know how yours turn out! - Morgan
Pam, I love that idea. Thanks so much for suggesting it. I plan on making lots so that would save so much time. Also, you could use the cotton batting. Plus, I have a rotary cutter with the pinked blade. I feel an assembly line in my future. LOL. God bless.
Pam Satterfield that’s a great idea!
I thought I'd try serging the edges, with right sides out.
Thank you for sharing. I can’t wait to make these. God bless. Stay safe!
Hope you enjoy! Let us know how yours turn out! - Morgan
Thank you so much for sharing your wonderful story and tutorial of such a great way to share God's hope, peace, blessings and love 🙏
Thank you so much for watching, Pam! We're so thankful that you take the time to watch our videos and comment.
@@ShabbyFabrics you are very welcome 😊🤗
What a great idea! What do you think about adding a pocket on the back to place the prayer in? Would that make it too thick to work with?
That's a cute idea! It will be thicker, but it would probably still work. Let us know if you give it a try! - Morgan
Great idea Raphelle!
yes i can not find the prayer to print out it says you have to pay for it i clicked on the download all it shows is the pattern to make the quilt not the saying so where would i look at
Hello! We added the prayer to the free pattern. It's on the last page! - Morgan
www.shabbyfabrics.com/Assets/Downloads/PocketPrayerQuilt_forDownload.pdf
Thank you for this inspiring tutorial! Your explanation for the swirl pressing of the hourglass block is awesome. I'm going to do this!
Thank you for watching! These prayer quilts are adorable and we would love to see some that you make! ~Leah
Thank you for sharing this pocket pray quilt . I’ve made several and given them to so many people who have enjoyed receiving it❤️
We are very glad you enjoy this project! -Michelle
Since the kits are sold out now, could you make a printable version of the prayer sheet available until they're available again?
We have the prayer added onto the free download so you can copy and paste that, and print right from home! :) - Morgan
@@ShabbyFabrics I don't see it. www.shabbyfabrics.com/Assets/Downloads/PocketPrayerQuilt_forDownload.pdf
Never mind - I see I can cut and paste the little copy. I was imagining a page with multiple copies for multiple pocket quilts - but can retype or make a screen shot and make my own.
Carol Liege, Carol, I have alway had challenges with computers and printers. But what I have learned over the years is, type one prayer, then ‘copy’ and ‘paste’ that to another section on the page. By the time you’re done coping and pasting, you will have an entire page to print out. Hope this helps. Stay healthy. Have a great day!
@@geraldinelombardo7434 Thanks, Geraldine. You can't cut-n-paste from a PDF, but it was easy to grab a screenshot once I saw the square in the lower right corner. I could also have retyped and repeated, or used a full sheet of a label template in Word. Both alternatives if you're going to try it too.
Has anyone that sewn the pocket Pray quilt by chance enlarge the pattern to 2 1/2 by 2 1/2 . Which would be much easier
To turn .
If someone has, we'd love to hear how it worked! :) - Morgan
Pearl Bouchard: Have you tried making in 2 1/2”square yet? If so, did it work? I’m trying to work out mine, the raw measurements, that is. Could use any advice you have! THX!
Annie Littlewolf yes I did, slightly too big . 2 x 2 that is working out very well . Am finishing a embroidery and will do example of another one
2x2 strips lenght 5 inches . Will send a pic of it .
Annie Littlewolf also working on a rosary pouch - to go,with the pray pocket- one side of pocket pouch for rosary and the other side the Pray quilt. Been playing with that
Ann. Am trying to upload a pic on the Pray quilt - I did mine 2x2 and it works out well . Also did the pray on fabric photo paper and printed the Pray on the fabric photo and just applique it on the back! Would like to show you but cannot upload the pics .
Thank you for sharing this. I will be making them and delivering them to our local nursing homes and hospitals. Peace to you!
That is so sweet of you! I'm sure they will love it! Be safe! ~Leah
What a wonderful project to make. Never seen them before but I intend to make and send so thank you. Thank you for showing how and u r so right, people need to know how much they r loved and appreciated x
You are so welcome! We know people will love these when you get to send them.
Love this! I will be making these for each of the ladies in my bible study group. It’s the perfect little gift.
We love that idea! Let us know how they like them.
Sweet and thoughtful. I like the hourglass and how you had the seams going around with the mini in the middle.
Thank you so much! Glad you like it! - Morgan
I love these. I made 50 of them to give away. Thank you for this tutorial.
Wonderful! We love to hear that you enjoyed it and are making these to give! What a special way to remind others that someone cares about them.
I, too, love this project. There are so many who need to feel loved and this is a beautiful way to express that love. Thank you so much for sharing your talent and the "how-to"... I've had to watch your tutorial several times to get my little quilts right, but so worth the time. I've made mine with a tiny eyelet/buttonhole in one corner (I haven't stitched the outer edges) and put a charm (fish shape with "blessed" in the center) on a jump ring and then a key chain.
Blessings to all at SF and who follow you.
Hi Donna- We are thankful that this project has inspired you to encourage others. Thank you for sharing your gifts! 💖 -Michelle
I'm glad I'm not the only one that loves to spin the seams. It makes it fun and almost a secret that only you know, in your quilt!
That's such a great way of putting it! We love that there's a little secret in the quilt.
Thank you for sharing, this is the perfect gift for my friends and my church friends
We're so glad you like it! Let us know how your friends like the gifts! - Morgan
Received my little Pocket Prayer kit a couple of days ago. These are just too sweet for words. I'm going into production when the sun comes up. Thank you Jen for your kind nature, sharing nature and your sweet spirit.
Hi Leslie! Thank you for watching! These Pocket Prayer Quilts have been very popular and everyone loves them! Have fun and happy sewing! ~Leah
Love this idea. What a great idea to send to friends and family that are homebound. I can also see it used for folks in nursing homes and for those who have lost loved ones. Thanks so much for sharing it with us.
Thank you for watching! Those are all such great ideas! Stay safe! ~Leah
I can't WAIT to make these! I just ordered your kits! thanks so much for sharing! I plan to do the same!
Awesome! Hope you enjoy it! - Yajaira

I love this. Thank you for sharing! I'm going to make these for those that need a little extra loving. I use a pair of forceps or a long pair of tweezers to turn small items like quilted Christmas ornaments, coasters and narrow handles for bags, etc. , so much easier.
That's a great idea, thank you for sharing! We're so glad you like the project and the video. - Morgan
