"Book of Mormon Stories" Quilt, post #2


This panel depicts the resurrected Christ coming to visit the people in the New World, as He prophesied He would do in John 10:16 "And other sheep I have, which are not of this fold: them also I must bring, and they shall hear my voice; and there shall be one fold, and one shepherd." In the Book of Mormon, His appearance in America is told in 3 Nephi 15.

Click on the photo to make it bigger, and you will see the yellow glow around Jesus. I accomplished that by cutting ovals of yellow tulle (netting) in graduated sizes, and piling them up under him. This makes the "glow" less and less bright as it goes out from the center.
