I decided that I really should try to finish off my piece for the annual members exhibition at the Embroiderers Guild, Victoria (Australia), coming up in September. Plenty of time, I know, but I needed to cut it to size and put a border on.
I decided to do the quilt art thing and put a fabric border on. I had some silk that I had dyed at the same workshop I did the background fabric at. That got cut up today and then I sewed on the border. I also sewed on a backing.
It isn't perfect as I am not that good at hand sewing, especially silk. But it is done!! I have gone online and put in the details. Now I can relax, I have a piece for the exhibition.
I have cropped an image I got from 123RF. It is a site where you can purchase an image and then use it in your art. Here is the copyright.
Now to get back to my tapestry and see about finishing that in time - for a closer deadline!
