More Options .... in Hardanger: Border stitched


After working really hard and long, I have just done the border with blanket stitches.

Again, I can't seem to be able to get a good photo showing the colors properly. The thread looks really good with the fabric, but whenever I look at any photos that I have taken so far, the colors just do not come up right. Too bad that you can't see the colors up-close and personal :-)

I am not sure if I am going to do the eyelets next or the motifs. The eyelets will be quite repetitive and there are quite a bit of them. They do need to be done before I can start having fun with the fillings though, so no way that I can get out of it :-(

I guess I may end up doing a bit of both, just to change the monotony a bit.

I also need to start looking online for some bell pull hardware. Not sure what I want, metal or wood. Choices, choices ..............
