  5. Thanks for participating, Ladies! :-)

    Marge - To answer your question, these designs can be sewn onto vestments, however, we've been commissioned by various ecclesiastics to embroider these specific crests on other items. . . including handkerchiefs, altar linens, napkins, afghans, framable artwork, etc.
