Finished size: 27.5 by 35 inches.
I've grown accustomed to having Carolyn's company in the studio; after applying backing to the upper part of the cloth, I inserted a temporary top rod and let the cloth "hang out" for several weeks so it would get all the latent stretch out of its system. I think the wait time helped, and now that the whole piece is backed, it seems to hang quite smoothly, straight and true.
I hope the person who commissioned the work is as fond of the weaving as I am!

This is so awesome, Sandra! I can't imagine the new owner not loving it.
Always nice to complete something. :) Looks great.
cheers,

We really like the outcome. We are enjoying having the weaving ourselves for a while. It is a 90th Birthday gift for my mother (Carolyn), which we will celebrate in January.
Thanks again Sandra!
