I stumbled across this article about a sculpture with needlepoint leaves intended for the University of Maryland's Memorial Chapel recently. Of course I don't remember who told me about it, but it is a wonderful example of ecclesiastical embroidery, 21st Century style.

Thanks to Jan's blog I discovered The Blackwork Journey, Elizabeth Almond's website that has a free blackwork design called "Save the Stitches" being uploaded in sections. The link below shows other free blackwork patterns, too.
