His Eye Is On The Sparrow

Recently Jenny of Elefantz posted a free pattern that I just fell in love with.  And since she is really into recycling I stitched mine on an antique linen napkin which has a few teensy, tiny holes that are almost invisible.  I think they have just worn out from use or perhaps too much bleach.  Anyway, I love the way it turned out.

I added a little ruffle and I think it really sets off the sparrow.


I have no idea what I want to do with this piece but for now it's hanging on my stove and reminds me every day of His love.


Such sweet details - and so fast to stitch!

    It's most lovely Marlene, and what a loving reminder that we are important to our Father in Heaven.

    I love it! It's so cute. What a great reminder of the truth of God's Word - He cares for the tiny, little sparrow and He cares for me. And you, dear friend.

    I printed off that pattern too. One day.
    I like what you made with it and it will be a nice reminder each time you step into the kitchen of God's love for you/us.

    I downloaded that one too. You really have done it nicely. I must print it out and do it. The sparrow is so creatively put together combined with the stitchery.
