Blackwork










A picture of my latest needlework venture. This will be, when it is finished, a bible cover in black work embroidery. It will be a grooms gift to the fiance of a very special friend of mine, my youth ministry college Anne. It is rare to encounter someone who shares a spirituality, a sense of humour and an outlook on life with you. A year ago, I met Anne and found all three in one. She is ten years younger and about to embark on the journey of married life. Her fiance is a wonderful young man and worthy of her. He is a recent convert to Catholicism, and I was planning on making this bible cover for his official entry in the church. That was last february. Oooops.
