Universally recognized symbol of hope and peace, Noah's Ark is one of Jim's most beloved themes. Noah wears a golden gown with embroidered trim details and a braided raffia belt. His quilted hooded coat is trimmed with purple piping with a toggle button closure. Embroidered pattern depicting waves encircle the button of Noah's coat. Checkerboard patchwork fabric accents his ears and his golden fabric embroidered paw pads coordinate with the trim on his gown. Atop his head sits a symbol of peace, a white dove holding an olive branch crafted in felt. Jim's folk-art style Ark and its inhabitants can be found in this remarkable demonstration of craftsmanship. The multi-fabric Ark features a barn crafted in corduroy fabrics, a quilted patchwork base with Ohio Star embroidery. Safe passage has been sought by a pig, cow and sheep, each featuring intricate embroidered accents.
