Women of the Bible – 17 & 18
Posted Wednesday, May 9th, 2018 in QAL, Quilting | Tags: , quilt along
The newest blocks in the Women of the Bible series are quick and easy to sew. I chose to use less busy fabrics in these two blocks because some of the previous blocks are very busy.
Block 17 is named Jael. She and her husband hid a Canaanite military leader in their home. As he was sleeping, she killed him. Jael was declared a heroine for bringing down an enemy of Israel.
The 18th block in the series is Tamar. The story of Tamar can be found in Deuteronomy 25: 5-6.
The stories of some of these women of the Bible are quite shocking. They were heroines in their time but would be considered extremely inappropriate and even criminal by today’s standards.
The patterns for these blocks can be found at Prairie Quilt.
