I photographed it outside in direct sunlight on a white cloth.
I just love the 'open' feeling of this piece.
I used different varegated thread colors for the Satin Stitches and the same varegated thread for the weaving.
The weaving turned out to be pretty good...all the same tension.
The Satin Stitches and Cable Stitches are pretty uniform as well. I'm extremely pleased as to how this turned out. My sister Susan was here this week and examined all my work. She said that I am now an 'accomplished hardanger stitcher'. Wow....coming from her, well, I can't even imagine a higher compliment!
I'm working on The Blue Project now...another Hardanger piece. Stay tuned!

Hi!
I said you were an accomplished hardanger stitcher long before last week!
Susan
I don't even know what this is as far as how you do it but it is beautiful. I'm an accomplished softdanger stitcher by the way...it's very hush hush vip and all that, I'm not permitted to post photographs, but please be impressed!
WOW! What do you do with all of these? They are really amazing and you have so many different types that you have made now (I'm going backwards from Feb 2013 through your blog right now!!).
