Description

Banner with pictorial needlework scene stitched with yarn, trees and river with two horses, birds, a horserider, and a bather; buildings and hills pictured in background. Backed by light blue loose-weave fabric and hung on a metal pole. "Made in Pakistan" written along lower edge on back. This banner was made by women participating in the NGO SOIL (Social Organization for Integral Life), founded by Sr. Maria Daniel, SL. Srs. Nasreen Daniel and Samina Iqbal, SL, also worked with SOIL. The women wanted to make something for Nasreen, so they made this banner for her to give to Loretto on her second visit to the Motherhouse (2001).
