“Project Footstool”

A peek at some of the 146 works of fabric art hidden away in the sanctuary of First Unitarian in New Bedford. I particularly like the diversity of styles — some of the works are reflective of fabric art from that era (rough textures, subdued colors), others reflect a more traditional sensibility, and some are just outrageously bright. 3:24

(This video was scheduled to be posted last Friday, but I ran into technical glitches and had to re-shoot parts of it — now you know why the opening title says “Friday Video,” even though today is Wednesday.)

Note: video host blip.tv is defunct, so this video no longer exists.

    What a wonderful idea in getting new covering for the footstools. I love your site and have bookmarked it. My wife and I were married in the Universalist Church in Canton on June 11, 1960. The Universalist merged with the Unitarians when the two denominations merged and we are currently members of the First Parish UU, Canton which meets in the Unitarian Church. Our church has an original Paul Revere Bell which is rung every Sunday previous to our church service.
