On the design wall...

This is the latest piece that I am working on. The working title is "Letters Home". It is layered and ready for stitching, then more over-painting. The inspiration for the piece is the destruction through war and the precious letters home from members of the military and the prayers of family members waiting for those letters and the safe return of their loved ones.

I love it! Are you using copies of real letters?

Some of the text is just background text, some is actual letters. I've added more paint to it now and will post a new photo in the next day or so.
