Large, colorful quilt comprised of various fabrics in an irregular grid pattern featuring 13 biblical proverbs, depicted through geometric motifs and images of people and animals, including: People who live in glass houses shouldn't throw stones; All that glitters is not gold; What goes around, comes around; To enter the Kingdom of God, you must walk a straight and narrow path; A light on a hill cannot be hidden; You have to crawl before you can walk; Why focus on the speck of dust in someone else's eye when you have a log in your own; The grass is always greener on the other side of the fence; He who laughs last, laughs best; Mothers do not wear crowns; Don't bite the hand that feeds you; A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush; Don't just put your foot down, plant it.
