Our Father Who Art in Heaven...
One day while thrifting for our ETSY shop, my daughter and I came across the most amazing vintage stitchery of The Lord's Prayer.
The prayer, doves, flower basket and border are stitched on a pink satin/silk material that's oh-so-slightly faded and stained around the edges.
The old gold frame is quite chippy, adding to the charm of this piece.
I was so taken with this piece that my daughter bought it for me on the spot and told me it was for my birthday!!
It definitely shows signs of its age which again, in my eyes, adds to the beauty of this piece.
The piece is not signed or dated, so there's no way to know for certain when it was stitched or by whom. I don't know if it was a young girl or an older woman who lovingly stitched this prayer, but it was certainly a labor of love as this is quite a large piece, about 16" x 20."
And since I work from home either transcribing, painting, or managing my ETSY shops, I'm able to enjoy it every single day as it hangs in my office/studio.
I'm linking up to How Sweet the Sound for Pink Saturday. Have a lovely weekend!
