Heron for Ordinary Time

"Be still and know I am God." Psalms 46:10

Hand embroidered heron and cattails rest at the base of this liturgical stole on a vivid green dupioni shantung silk. Threads used are Egyptian varigated cotton floss, wool and silk. Hand-dyed silk creates the feathers on the heron.

Workbasket: Ordinary Heron

Kayaking brings me deep enjoyment and peace, and so often I am kept company by the many herons that populate the many lakes nearby. Hopefully, this conveys that peace.

Silk, hand marbled cotton, Egyptian varigated thread, tonal wool thread on a vivid green silk.
