This is the latest chasuble which will be used on Saturday. Not quite done so it's burning the midnite oil/early morning shift to finish!

WOW! Not sure what it is for in church. But it is BEAUTIFUL! And to think you free-stitched this on your machine! Amazing.

In the Catholic and some other churches the priest wears this (chasuble) over a white vestment (alb). The colours are according to "seasons", Christmas being white. There are special feast days of which we celebrate Mary on the 1st Jan

Had it digitized from a picture. It is 5 x 8 inches but my Bernina allows me to enlarge or reduce so the stole has the same picture but at 60%

Hi Elizabeth,

This is just beautiful. I love the simplicity of the design and the gold ribbon fabric on the edges ties it all in together. Of course the blue behind Mary is definitely her! Love the white Chasuble fabric too. Great job I am sure your Priest will love this.

Love and blessings Chris

P.S. Where did you get that lovely design?

Thank you, can you believe the chasuble fabric is tabing. (Table cloth) Pity it is only available in white or creme as it would really be lovely in green, purple and red!
