fruit of the spirit

i'm working on some new projects today, but nothing finished yet.  so, i'm posting another piece of artwork that is currently hanging in an exhibit called "Beauty of the Word".  this was created by transferring my lettering onto handmade paper squares, and then stitching the squares together onto a larger piece of art paper.  to add some dimension, i used skeleton leaves and heart charms within the blank squares.  the final result is somewhat like a paper quilt...and i loved every minute of it!
