Finished


It is 363 cm long (it was supposed to be 350). We decided that we couldn't do anything about shortening it without destroying the integral value of the piece. The exhibition committee are planning on each piece being 40 cm from the floor - we hope the exact height doesn't matter, and it's probably better to be a bit long than too short.

It is now wrapped in an old doona cover, folded into the cover Alcira made, labelled and ready to be delivered tomorrow night.

Mine will be delivered then too. I discarded the idea of outlining the windows with a heavy thread. Experiment demonstrated that it added nothing, while placing unwanted emphasis on uneven stitching. I have stitched the label on the bottom binding and it is ready to go.
