Sew Happy

Monica Dennis has recently been introduced to the delights of making Prayer Flags.

This is her first contribution!

Jeanelle McCall writes "Just finished some prayer flags that will be on the way to the Museum of East Texas. Traditionally, prayer flags are used to promote peace, compassion, strength, and wisdom. The flags do not carry prayers to gods, a common misconception; rather, the prayers, wishes and good thoughts are blown by the wind, spreading good will and compassion far and wide.

All beings that are touched by the wind are uplifted and a little happier. The silent prayers are blessings spoken on the breath of nature. Just as a drop of water can permeate the ocean, prayers dissolved in the wind extend to fill all of space.May all beings everywhere
receive benefit and find happiness."

Happiness Flags

Kate Fern created these wonderful 'happiness flags' using hand carved stamps she already had.
