I've been working on embroidering this celtic knot border for almost a year and a half. This weekend I finished it. Wow!!!! It is amazing to step back and look at it. It is approx. 45in. on each side. I used a simple chain stich for the whole thing. This is my first project like this. The idea behind the project is a wedding quilt for my husband and I.
There are some technical problems with the piece that definitely need to be worked out before I start another large scale embroidery project. I did not use an interfacing and I think this caused puckering and some loose stiches. Despite the setbacks I think the overall effect is pretty successful. Not bad for a first try! (Can't ever start small)
I will continue posting images as I work out the middle of the piece, etc....Stay tuned....
