Chapter Ten

Converting Hanging Design into Embroidery
Chosen design for hanging   Chosen design for hanging with feature
Chosen design and design with addition of feature squares – Siân suggested these squares and I think they bring the design together.  Lime green is a colour I have only discovered recently and one which I will certainly use in the future.
