Here are a couple of closer images of the binding from the front. It was block printed commercial cotton, fused and stitched with a free motion zig zag.
Detail of stitching.
Here is the full image. It looks rather wonky, and that is accurate. I cut the edges and bottom to be slightly irregular.
It always feels good to finish a project!
I really love this piece! Especially the glow of the warm colors in the middle. And the irregular shape of the edges fits nicely... you have made a beautiful piece, and if I recall correctly, this was started along the lines of 'what if', right? Did it come close to what you originally had in mind? Great job!
