The Angel Moroni has finally made his debut on my wholecloth quilt! (In case you're wondering who in the world is Moroni (More-own-I), he's the last prophet in the Book of Mormon and the Angel who first gave Joseph Smith the records to translate into what we now call the Book of Mormon). My kids always look for the Angel Moroni to tell if it's a temple or not. I've heard Little Man and Little Lady many times point to a beautiful building and say, "Mom, it doesn't have Moroni, so it's not a temple."
I've almost got the entire structure quilted now. I just have a few touch ups to do, and then I'll take care of the sky. I'm working on the Madrid Temple, but here's a picture of the Columbus Temple that I normally go to. Just a couple of weeks ago a whole bunch of women from my ward went together. It was a wonderful experience.
If you've ever wondered what the difference is between a temple and a regular church building and what goes on inside a temple that's so special, this is probably the best video I've seen that explains it really well:
Why Mormons Build Temples
I'm so far behind in reading my blog posts. Sorry I did not see this one earlier, it is wonderful! I love it.
