Alas and Did My Saviour Bleed | Lindy Stitches

With Easter fast approaching, this was exactly what I needed. When I stitch words, I meditate on them. The text is from Isaac Watt's beautiful hymn written in 1707, and they describe exactly how I feel about the cross. I was happy to sign my name in black thread----my testimony, my gratitude. Full alphabet provided so you can do the same.
