Friday Flaunt - Stitchin' Mission Quilt

I finished my 48" X 60" Stitchin' Mission quilt that will be going to an orphanage in Craiova, Romania. This machine-embroidered quilt label was made by one of the quilters who made 35 of them for the donated quilts.

The fragrance of what you give away stays with you. -- Earl Allen

Each should give what she has decided in her heart to give, not reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver. 2 Corinthians 9:7 (NIV)

Cheerfully!

P. S. But gosh, this flaunt isn't nearly as wonderful as the one I posted earlier this week!

(Each Friday, bloggers who belong to Quilting Down Under chat group post a flaunt of their productivity. Visit Cinzia's blog to find links to all 19 Friday Flaunt-ers.)

Homemade Basting Spray

3 cups water

1 tsp. salt

3 heaping TBLS. flour

1 cup rubbing alcohol (Vodka works too and makes the spray odorless)

1 clean 24-ounce spray bottle

A 16.9-ounce Best Press bottle works; 2 bottles will be needed.

Combine 2 cups water and 1 tsp. salt in a pot; bring to a boil.

Combine 1 cup water and 3 heaping TBLS. flour in a jar or well sealed tupperware; shake to mix. When the water and salt boils, lower temperature to a gentle boil; add flour and water. Cook on medium heat until the mixture thickens like gravy. Stir it so it doesn't stick. Remove from heat. Let cool to room temperature. When mixture is cool, pour it into the spray bottle. Add 1 cup rubbing alcohol or vodka. Shake well to mix.
