Banners

A banner I did in 1983 for the parish office

Back in the early 1980s, when I first arrived in the USA and was stationed at Holy Spirit parish in New Hyde Park, NY, I worked on a few banners for our church. They were displayed periodically and according to the season. Here are a few that I did over the years. The backdrop usually was burlap or felt, and the letters were all made of felt, including the designs that I personally cut one by one.

A banner I did in 1982 for the Teen Club, quoting St Francis of Chichister's famous quote which was included in the Australian musical "Godspell"
