Opus 2 text detail

Here's some detail showing the process for doing the Greek text. The technique is reverse applique - based loosely on a Hawaiian quilting technique:
1) The red fabric is placed behind the lighter fabric
2) For this project, I printed out the text as a pattern
3) I stitched the paper and the two layers together by machine

4) I tore away the paper patterns

5) Stitched the edges of each letter with a blind hand stitch

The Greek passage says : "All scripture is God-breathed, and it is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in rightousness"
