paraments

I was asked to make white paraments (used at Christmas and Easter) in honor of our retiring associate pastor, Avena Ward.

I used Michael Miller's Fairy Frost as I like the sheen it gives.

On the Sunday of her retirement I sat in the balcony with several friends who helped make major binding progress during the service.

At the reception members of the congregation were welcomed to add stitches.
I planned to remove what wasn't to my standard, but decided to leave them in. It was so much fun to see people delight to participate.

There is still some finishing work to be done. I'll get more photographs when they are installed.
