finished. i don't know if the string that goes
through the middle will be visible when i send
the pic to blog or not. but it is just a plain
hemp string that is separated into individual
fibers at both ends. there are also 3 hidden
things. i am unsure about these hidden things,
but…they are there.
after it arrives at Wendy's and the children
have it, i will talk about the 3.
Grace, it is beautiful! So lovingly done…the edges with the kantha stitching make a perfect holder for the center. I imagine that the children will be enchanted…

Gasp! I love it! I have been following, but I cant remember: is this cloth that already had the print on it, or did you put the color/print there? The weaving makes this such a special object and the frame that you put it on is so clever with the stitching and the uneven bottom. its really great :).

I love that fabric you used for the weaving. Up close, it doesnt say too much to me. BUT, on the window cloth and back a bit it is enchanting! It would make me smile each time I passed it!I was wondering what youve been up to also. It seems like a lot of people were quiet this week.;~) Debi
