Yesterday I...

...updated the last posting on Nancy's turkey canvas with photos.  She was able to fix the problem with her camera.  The photos add a lot to Nancy's explanation of what she has figured out for her canvas.  I'm especially impressed with the way she has her border widen/narrow slightly to make a sort of arrowhead shape in the corners.  Since folks who read Blog through their RSS feeds or readers won't know that article was updated, I'm posting about it here.  This is the direct link to the updated Blog article.

The border is beautiful!

I like it, too. The widening/narrowing of the corner shapes has grown on me. I never would have thought of that!

Thank you both, Pat and Jane, for your kind words about the border. It's becoming clear to me how useful time spent in planning can be. I'm thinking that I may pad the outer green border for a bit more emphasis. It seems a bit one dimensional now.

Then pad away. You can probably use your Rainbow Linen that's the same shade for padding the outside border. That way it won't look odd underneath the Silk N Ivory.
