Tried for a photo op today.
First, tested out the hammock (I've managed a nap here EVERY day of our vacation so far!!).
Then tried holding it up but the sea breeze kept blowing it.
As much as I wanted to take it down to the beach itself, I decided sand would not be the best idea. Therefore, we've got one final closeup:
I will add some black stitching for the flagpoles for my flags. I am still trying to decide if I should add an outer border. The quilt now measures probably 50 x 50. I want this for a wall hanging so decided I'd better measure the space I want to hang it before I add the border. I'm pleased with the border-less look as it currently stands.
The house we rent is very small and I've found the kitchen table works as a fine sewing table. This is the view just a few steps away from where I sew.
Hope you are having a wonderful week.
Happy Stitching!
I find I am normally a "border" type of gal. But with this one??? I think with the interlocking block/square "frame" you have around the sand castle, all you need to do is put a brown or black binding on it and call it done. Well done!
ReplyDeletewow,your border and castle are awesome.
ReplyDeleteLike Deborah, all you need is is put a black or dark brown binding.Well done!!
Think I would add a small 2-1/2 inch border of the background fabric, just to make your design "float" in the structure of the quilt. Very nice and glad yyou are enjoying your week. Judy C
