Unframed Tapestry

Joyce Ajok, Threads of Blessing artist, lovely hand-stitched work shows two colorful parrots resting on a log. The birds' vivid colors and center placement on the canvas, are highlighted by a cool green field fading into a bright blue sky. The work measures 12 x 8.5 inches. 

Joyce meets weekly with her fellow needleworkers.  The community they have developed through Threads of Blessing encourages each of them and has significantly raised their self-confidence.

She will use the funds she receives for her needlework to provide education for her children, medical support for her family, seeds or fertilizer for her crops, repairs for her home, and provide for any orphans for whom she cares as a result of HIV-AIDS or other illnesses. 

“I would like to thank the founder of Threads of Blessing.  I am one of the beginners recently introduced to Threads of Blessing.  I have been able to learn a lot.  I will continue to achieve like others.  May God bless you so much for allowing God to use you to teach us.” -Joyce Ajok.
