Love Nest with Orioles is the companion craft object to the
Massachusetts Wedding Bed, a queen-sized
bed made by hand in Wellfleet, Massachusetts, the only state
in America that allows same-sex marriage. Love Nest with Orioles
is no less special, an embroidery kit whose hours of labor
represent a lifetime of intimacy for a man and a woman or
a woman and a woman or a man and a man.
Love Nest with Orioles contains everything you need to craft a beautiful object of love: one pre-printed, pure linen ground, five hand-selected colors of cotton floss, two sewing needles, one embroidery hoop, and one sheet of muslin backing. Once completed, this commemorative image can be stretched as a painting, stitched into a pillow, or framed as a work of art.
Love Nest with Orioles! The only embroidery kit on the market whose very purchase is a statement of support for the right of any two consenting adults to live, love and get married however they see fit.
