Ebroidery/Quilt Poem needed

[bsmomma123]

I am in need of poem about either quilting or embroidery. It has to do with the top side being perfect and the back side showing the flaws.....and it parallels life.

A girl friend remembers this poem that I used long ago and I cannot find it. It would be greatly appreciated if someone could share:)

I dunno if you're looking for a specific poem, but here's one that's off the top of my head...

You see this quilt was made for you by a friend and by her Father

For all the times you feel bad and like you shouldn't bother.

And remember that the one who built you crafted you like this quilt.

I dunno if it's any good. But it's the best I can come up with. Sorry if this doesn't help.

But from this darkened underside, from all of our eyes it does hide.

We just see the darker threads, weaving throughout our life instead.

And through all the pain and sorrow, we look to a brighter tomorrow.

What is the poem about life being like a quilt, we see all the strings beneath but God sees a beautiful t
