Cross Stitch Ardas With Praying Hands

To me, the picture illustrates a common thread found in all religions.

The praying hands tell a thousand words

How lovely!

Seriously. Beautiful!

At first I thought that was an old Chinese photo I’ve seen before. But then I remembered Mao and company didn’t believe in prayers.

This cross stitch transcends all words.
I wish I could work with threads & tiny things, alas my arthritis keeps me to bigger things, .

Thanks, I like this piece too and am looking forward to make a few more

Our minds must have crossed, my entry today is a cross stitch project too.

It’s beautiful. Did you make it?

nice work. happy ww.

So powerful, so beautiful.

I played too. Mine are here and here.

I did this one too and gave it to my mom.

Happy WW.

very meaningful and inspirational. Happy WW!

Must have taken quite a long time to finish this.

A lot of work…and no doubt love…went into that.

Lovely! Great work and a great remembrance of all the ardas means.

That’s a very spiritual cross stitch.

I admire those with the patience to spend so much time creating something. In our society it’s much easier to go buy something, but something purchased could never approach the meaningfulness of something handmade.

Thats beautiful handcraft work !!!
Happy WW

This one says so much, in a simple and direct way. Thoughts to ponder…

What a lovely cross stitch! It’s simple yet pretty and expressive.

The detail on the hands is really wonderful!

i may not undersand what’s written there but the pcture shows the meaning already!

happy WW!

i’m finally back!

Sukhi: it’s beautiful. I can’t believe you had time to do this with everything else you do. What a full life you lead.

Maria this piece and others are cross stitched by Susheel Kaur, a Sikh she married and lives in Sweden with her husband and family.

Happy Wordless Wednesday!
piety and prayer, peace and joy !

Lovely!

Beautiful.

Lisa you are right I lead much too full of a life to attempt to do cross stitch though it is tempting I don’t know how I’d find time. Maybe one day though I’ll have to give it a try, because it’s very compelling to create something of beauty.

Beautiful artwork. A picture is worth a thousand words.

I like that script, so I looked up a bit more about the Gurmukhi script and saw your 35 character chart. Very interesting.

waheguru ji ka khalsa waheguru ji ki fateh…very beautiful

Beautiful! Requires a lot of patience to finish it.

I learned cross-stitching from my mom when I was little. She made many cross-stitches and gave them as gifts to friends/family. I, on the other hand, never finished anything, even for one small piece, lol.

Lovely cross-stitch. I did that for years until I began to have problems with carpel tunnel. Very nice.

That looks just like a cross stitch example from any religion! How neat.

i’m running behind on my blog visits….

i love your tapestry, wonderful image of faith.
