Edging a milestone

For the first time, I've finished a part of the Banner.  Just a small part, I admit, but it feels like a major breakthrough - from now on, more and more things will be 'the last', until it's finally all finished. The end is in sight!

Well, it is if you use a very long lens, anyway.  Closer up, here's the various little flowers to the right of the panel edged in gold:


Then the three ferns:


And finally - hooray! - the last ever foxglove:


As its stem is already done, that's it finished - there's no more work to be done on it, and there are no more foxgloves to do.  Wow.

So, here's all the right hand bits and pieces together:


And all work so far - everything on the panel with the edging completed:


Stems next.

  1. Isn't it great to have the end in sight? all the pieces look so much more finished when edged with gold. Well, duh! Isn't that the point?
