Rock Stole

This realistic stone design fabric by Northcott has many shades of brown and gray. It's quiet,but very interesting. See more details or purchase this stole here.

Yellow Clergy Stoles

The solid yellow stole shown above is made from silk dupioni.  It has tiny slubs or chunks that I like. Dupioni is also a little bit stiffer than many silks, which is nice for a stole. The back side is black cotton so the stole won't slide off your lap when sitting down. See it here.

This stole is made from a big variety of cotton prints and batiks. Bright and cheerful, this stole is called Joyful Golden. It has been sold, but I plan to make more in the future.

Quilt Style Stole

This stole has nearly 200 fabric strips pieced together like a patchwork quilt! Each strip is a little more than 1/2" wide. Beautiful assortment of new fabrics in every color. A few of the fabrics have recogniable images that you can find upon close inspection: nuts, rulers, rocks, leaves, flowers, spoons, but they don't grab your attention. 

The whole assortment blends together in a joyful and friendly way.  Perfect for worship and celebrations. There's something about a quilt that is inviting and comforting.

First Stole in a New Series: Joyful Blue

See details about this Joyful Blue stole #268 here: Shadrach's Fine Handmade Clergy Stoles.

This is the first of six stoles made from my collection of Kaffe Fassett Collective prints. I love this combination of blue, green and lavender. It reminds me of an evening walk by a lake.

I like the idea of incorporating beauty in worship.

New African Clergy Stole, #257

Today I cut into my latest Etsy purchase of African fabrics. I buy from sources in the US and Africa. I used to make quilts with these fabrics, but now I use them mostly for clergy stoles. When you view a whole yard, the bright bold designs can be overwhelming. But when cut up and blended together in a stole or a quilt, I think the result is beautiful.

See the listing for this stole in Shadrach's, my Etsy shop. Available for purchase. Fast shipping.

If this stole will be a gift, let me know, and I'll include a matching handmade gift card. No charge.

Another Seaglass Stole

Blues, greens and sandy chartreuse colors look like seaglass. This soothing pallette is popular and hard to keep in stock. This one is hot off the sewing machine. It would make a nice gift for a pastor who enjoys the beach and the sea. Happy summer!
