Ecclesiastical Sewing introduces new Chasuble patterns with fancy trims called orphrey bands. The blog explains orphrey bands’ history and talks about the special St. Hubert Brocatelle fabric. It shows how to choose trims and cut the fabric to make these beautiful church vestments, making the process easy to understand for everyone.
To determine the size of the frame, we measured the twill tape. The twill tape measures 18 inches long, so this is an 18-inch slate frame. This slate frame may have a piece of fabric that is up to 18 inches wide sewn to the twill tape. The sizes of the slate frames may be adjusted as needed for specific projects.
The ordination of a new pastor or priest usually involves a ceremony or special service. Many churches have a specific order of service to ordain new clergy.
