Ave Maria, Latin for the Angelic Salutation or the Hail Mary, is used within the Catholic Church, and forms the basis of the Rosary.
This design is from the
Embroidery Pattern Catalogue, a publication offering iron-on embroidery transfers published in the mid to late 1800s by the Thomas Brown & Sons company of Manchester, England. Many of those traditional Christian patterns were hand drawn reproductions of designs from the 13
th and 14
th centuries and were created specifically for embroidery on vestments and other church linens.
When digitizing for machine embroidery we attempted to stay as true to the original design as possible.
