Stitch work portrays bird of paradise
Struck by a calligraphic rendering of a passe from the Bahá’í writings in the form of a bird of paradise, a member of a local stitching club in Victor Harbor, Australia, recreates the work with threads. The outline in black thread forms the words “In the name of God, the Glorious, the Most Glorious.” The piece was originally made by a well-known 19th century calligrapher from Persia known as Mishkín-Qalam.
