“The Tale of Two Lambs” is about making special decorations for a church, like Easter cloths. At first, the results weren’t good so, learning more became the focus. The Angus Dei featuring two lambs—one small for a robe and one big for an altar cloth. The story is about learning and getting better at sewing with silk and gold threads, with more things to find out along the way.
Making space for new projects in Ecclesiastical Sewing room. Creating a set of rose-colored church clothes for Advent and Lent. Using Florence and tapestry fabrics, making pieces like stole, chasuble, and more.
Discovery for Ecclesiastical Sewing and Ecclesiastical Embroidery Design ideas on Pinterest. One of the discoveries found on Pinterest is the Mandala. not initially for Ecclesiastical use, but to inspire creative ideas.
Creating various designs for Church Vestments remained a challenge. The Agnus Dei symbol aided in creating the pulpit fall, while inspiration from stained glass guided the design of the Altar Frontal. The quest for better designs spanned years, incorporating research, internet searches, and volunteer work. Gradually, more refined designs came to light.
Early struggles in Ecclesiastical Sewing led to the first project, an Altar Frontal and Pulpit Fall set. The rush to meet deadlines resulted in noticeable mistakes, but the set, though flawed, was used for Easter and admired by non-sewers. Reflecting on the errors, aimed to improve skills and techniques in Ecclesiastical Sewing.
Created new Altar Hangings for the church. The project included a black and gold Good Friday Pulpit Fall using traditional fabrics imported from the UK. The set is used on Ash Wednesday and Good Friday in the Lutheran Church-Missouri Synod.
