A new stole for Mary

I have been working on a stole for Deacon Mary for a couple of months. That would actually mean that I've been thinking about working on a stole for Deacon Mary - but not actually work on it much. I used flying geese - a paper pieced method - very time consuming - will use the regularly pieced method next time. In any case, the end result is excellent. We added beads on the bottom and along the tie that holds the two sides together and they really add a lot to the finished product. Here are a few pics.
