The Embroidered Ephod


I've been embroidering lately...this piece is now painted in and its frame is the embroidery hoop. The ephod is a symbol of intercession. It's taken from a portion of the Old Testament. Aaron, a priest, wore a piece which held 12 stones, each representing one of the tribes of Israel that he prayed for. The colors of those stones are here in each organic embroidered shape, symbolizing those in need of healing & prayer.
