It's Crow Time 
Hearts around the world……..love around the world…..it is what is needed. May there be more of it. Let us all take a wishbone & work towards, peace, harmony & that much needed LOVE 4 ALL.
Your work is always full of meaning Mo. Beautifully done.
(((Eliene))) I watched President Obama’s eulogy at Rev. Pinckney’s funeral whilst doing the last hour of stitching & had tears running down my cheeks (made it a bit tricky to see what I was stitching) he is such a beautiful poised elegant soulful man
Mo – I think I lost a comment (if I didn’t, then please delete this one) … just wanted to tell you how beautiful the stitching is and how much I love seeing the back!
thanks Liz, it was so pleasing getting the cloth all relaxed & laying flat, decided to send it off before I overdid it & I like the back too!
Golly Mo…what a gorgeous response to Dee’s call, and what daunting dispatch! I’m still sorting out my fabrics, wondering which should go into indigo. I guess I need to step it up. You set the bar pretty high.
(((Dana))) stitching is such a slow and gentle way to help mend our world, your work is an inspiration!
very very very awesome 😉 I love those hearts, surrounding the spaces with more love
thanks for the good words Arlee

(((Els))) it felt like I was channeling Jude and Dee into a prayer for mending our world
