I hope that everyone has had a beautiful and peaceful day. Greeting from Florida!
My object is not a flag to be hung outdoors but is instead a pendant to
be worn to remind the wearer that the goal of world peace will be
attained only through the works of each individual.
A rectangle of poplar wood is layered with etched copper that has a
leaf-shaped window with crocheted green cotton thread peeking through.
The back of the pendant was branded with the words “Path To Peace” and a
spiral as a physical representation that the path to peace will not
always be easy or comfortable.
The individual stitches of the crocheted cotton represent each of the
many things that we can do to achieve the goal of “world peace”.
