My name is Karen Tyler and the pictures that I have sent
are all photos of my own designs. I have over 30 different
designs including cathedral window stoles, Epiphany,
etc. and altar sets for the "green time." I
teach banner/stole making and lecture on symbols and
how art is an important part of worship. I love to give
workshops and I take special orders for stoles when time
allows. When commissioned I make banners and altar sets.
My husband is a pastor and I love all types of needlework.
I have a book proposal ready to send to publishers on "Stoles
for Worship." I am very grateful that
God has given me the hands and heart to celebrate Love
in this way.
