This hand-stitched tapestry, created by Mary Ungiera, Threads of Blessing artist, measures 6 x 5.5 inches. The small landscape features an elephant and a bird under an Acacia tree and a bright blue sky. Mary uses a vibrant green background to highlight the dark neutral hues of the other elements in the foreground and middle ground. This piece would be lovely framed or added to a journal cover or article of clothing.
"I want to thank God for the blessing he has given me. My mother has lost her eyesight. I came here from the Congo, and when there were problems, I tried to bring my mother along. The blessings enabled me to help my family. There was enough for me and some for God. I have no children, but I am responsible for my late brother’s children. I give thanks to God and ask that he bless you. Have a safe journey." - Ungiera, Mary
