I am FINALLY getting around to blocking this tapestry, and getting it ready to hang! I still have to add some 'guitar strings,' which may be actual guitar strings or, more likely, gold thread (as it will be more flexible, and less likely to damage the fiber over time.) I still haven't decided whether I'll mount this to a frame, as I usually do with a tapestry this size (18"x18") or line it and let it hang loosely from a hanging board. It is so much more economical to ship a rolled tapestry! And I am finding myself needing to be more aware of economics these days.
If you'd like to see my entire blocking method, go here.
The working title for this tapestry is "She's A Little Bit Country."
I am making very s l o w progress on the tapestry on the loom, but, Hey!, tapestry is all about slow, isn't it?!
