Proverbs 31 was written from a wise mother to her son, teaching him what to look for in a spouse. Paulette chose one of her favorite verses - and one of the most well-known of the chapter - as the inspiration for this design. The feminine color palette was very pleasant to work with, and she truly hopes stitchers find it relaxing as they "work willingly with their hands." The design can be framed or finished into a 7"x7" cushion, but this model has been mounted into a beautiful box from Olde Colonial Designs. It would make such a perfect sewing box, given the verse. (If framed or finished into a pinkeep, it would be so sweet displayed in a sewing studio or favorite stitching spot.)
