We manually digitized this beautiful design from a hand pattern that was originally created during 17th century. Use it on fine vestment linens and communion linens.
The design features passion flowers, a flower steeped in legend and with historical associations with Christianity. Early explorers and missionaries to South America used the beautiful intricate flower parts to tell the story of the death of Jesus. They saw the passion flower's ten petals and sepals representing the ten apostles present at the crucifixion. The filaments portrayed the crown of thorns, or the halo about Jesus' head. The stamens represented the five wounds to Christ's hands, feet and torso.
