What was your inspiration?

Found this pattern in a magazine I subscribe to. Fell in love with it, even though it doesn't fit with anything in my home. Had never done straight stitch only before, and found it was time consuming, but well worth the effort! Now, it hangs in my office. :)

What are you most proud of?

The neatness of the stitches, that I managed without the use of a laying tool.

What advice would you give someone starting this project?

Use a laying tool. It will go so much faster for you!
