Giraffes and zebras forage on the forest floor in this hand-stitched tapestry created by Sunny Katusabe, Threads of Blessing artist. Sunny uses a cool color palette and a variety o f stitches to articulate each element and layer in this serene scene, which measures 16.5 x 10 inches. Sunny lives in west central Uganda, in the diocese of Bunyoro-Kitara. Her life revolves around caring for her family and crops. She will use the funds she receives from her needlework to provide education for her children; medical support for herself and her family; seeds or fertilizer for her crops; maintenance and repairs to her home; and provide for any orphans for whom she cares; as a result poverty, HIV AIDS or other illnesses. Sunny meets weekly with her fellow needleworkers. The community they have built through Threads of Blessing encourages each of them and has significantly boosted their self-confidence. Show more
