Peace: Honoring a Friend




Today is International Peace Day. Here is my contribution to the Flags for Peace Project.

These are dedicated to my friend Martha. She was a woman of peace.



Hope you take a moment to think about peace today.

  1. They're beautiful Julie! There's something captivating about the simplicity of not only the flag itself, but this hamsa that speaks to me and has me all teary eyed. What a wonderful tribute to Martha.

    1. Thanks Angela.
      She was a wonderful friend and I miss her terribly. Making the flags in her honor was a very cathartic experience for me.
