Flower Power is Finished
Yippee, Flower Power is hooked and whipped. I really need to steam it again to tame the whipped edges but was too anxious to post a picture of it. This was the design hooked with Eric Sandberg in April.
The finished size, after adding the border and whipped edge, is 19.5 x 32. I purchased the pattern at a very good price from Maria Barton several months ago and the original drawing didn't have a border. There was adequate space for me to give it a 1.5" border and still have the inch to roll forward for the whipping. Of course I had to sew a piece of fabric on two sides to make it work on my frame but that was fine as I wanted that border.
You can see the pattern is a design by Cactus Needle and sold by Nola Heidbreder. Now I can get ready to put another pattern on my frame and start all over again. Thank goodness there aren't any rugs on the sidelines waiting for binding tho.
Happy Tuesday.
