if so, I finished another one, and now, I have to admit that I am very glad
to be finished this Growth Rings.
Ink Circles |
Now, what the heck am I going to do with it?
Oh don't go and get me wrong on this one,
I love the design
and I don't mind the colours I worked it in
but I really don't fancy it on that
"Lavender Quaker"
(colour of fabric)
What the hell was I thinking
when I let my very dear
Stitching Sisters talk me into it?
REALLY?
Would I follow one of them off a stash pile?
. . . NOT BLOODY LIKELY . . .
I guess in the long run
there are a few things
I could do with it.
. . . make a pillow . . .
(everyone can touch it with their grubby mitts & smile)
. . . frame it anyway . . .
. . . frame it anyway . . .
(hang it in our bedroom which is Hunter Green)
. . . use it as a table runner . . .
. . . use it as a table runner . . .
(have you seen the size of my table)
. . . make a flag . . .
. . . make a flag . . .
(worse case scenario,,, it would fade)
. . . gift it to someone . . .
(someone who likes Lavender Quaker)
. . . stitch it again . . .
(on a different choice of fabric and flosses!)
I know EXACTLY what you are talking about!! I did Long Dog's 'Rosemarkie' on hand-dyed purple aida, with an overdyed purple silk whose name escapes me right now. Trying to find a suitable frame--impossible! We finally sent it off to Jill Rensel and she did an amazing job! The mats are dyed to match the piece even! My
ReplyDeleteicon is a small rendition of the piece, but you get the picture. Hugs, Maggee
Hunter Green and lavander are beautiful colors together please keep us posted on what you do with it it is stunning.
