Lone Tree

Psalm 52:8--"But I am like an olive tree flourishing in the house of God; I trust in God's unfailing love forever and ever." Usually trees don't do well inside. Their leaves tend to yellow and wither because of lack of nourishment, too much water or not enough water. However, in the "house of God," everything flourishes. Now, if we'll just stay there and trust we, too, will flourish.

The foundation of this card is muslin measuring 2 1/2" x 3 1/2" on which I layered clipped and pulled yarn covered with tulle. I then quilted and embroidered it.
