Unusual Pair of Religious Punch Paper Yarn Drawings tin watertower but the book inside isI found these at a flea market in Pennsylvania and just found them pretty compelling: Sunday school meets Froebel yarn drawing. I'm not the least bit religious but just can't resist the drama of the language and iconography. And I really love the dropped blue thread hanging off "Freely" here.
