The Thursday embroidery group is arranging an exhibition. I haven’t been too interested – it’s not why I’m participating in the group – but I’m happy to help fill the walls. The Stockholm embroidery, the green skirt, the black cardigan, the print + organza swirls – and the black\/white\/red triptych.

The ladies in charge of hanging the exhibition are doing it on Tuesday at 10. Yesterday I bought unbleached linen fabric, and today I spent the morning on putting it all together. Covered a piece of foamboard with the linen fabric, stitched the corners of the pieces to it, and attached a piece of wire for hanging.<\/p>\n
