Stories in Stitchery

The Book of Mormon is a rich resource of stories of faithful people who believed in the Savior, Jesus Christ. Featured here are works of three Latter-day Saint artists who have drawn upon some of these stories as the subject for their artwork. Their artwork was part of the Fifth International Art Competition sponsored by the Museum of Church History and Art.
