Angels We Have Heard on High

Challenging 14″x40″

 

Angels we have heard on high
Sweetly singing o’er the plains,
And the mountains in reply
Echoing their joyous strains.
Gloria, in Excelsis Deo!
Gloria, in Excelsis Deo! 

This Christmas Carol has always had a special place in my heart, but especially now because of where we live.  I can hear the refrain in my head echoing across our valley and mountains, especially when we have a white Christmas.  This doesn’t happen too often, we are more likely to have a white Easter than Christmas!

Originally, the design started out to be paper-pieced, but once I started working with the large patches of fabric, it wouldn’t work, at least for me, and devised another method.
