Quilt Block: Pope (John 21:17)

Description

This Pope quilt block captures the profound moment when one man becomes the Pope — the Successor of Peter, called not to rule but to shepherd. At the age when many are retiring, he steps into a role of unimaginable responsibility, beginning with silence in the Room of Tears. Rooted in the biblical call to Peter (“Feed my sheep” – John 21:17), this design reflects the visible head of the Church on earth, entrusted with guarding truth, guiding the faithful, and loving with the heart of Christ. A powerful tribute to the weight of spiritual leadership and the grace that sustains it.

This Pope quilt block pattern is designed with the advanced beginner foundation paper piecing individual in mind and includes:

• a short scripture reading and devotion/reflection tied to the block you are making
• the three foundation templates (8″x8″, 10″x10″, 12″x12″) making it three patterns in one
• instructions for assembly of the block
