Lacing

 Today's project has been lacing an embroidery piece.  I'd previously taken it for framing, but when we got it back it was just a little crumply and not quite square in the frame.  So I took it back to Michaels and they took it out, cut some acid-free board for me to lace it around, and said to bring it back when I was done, and back into the frame it will go.


One severe pressing and oodles and oodles of white thread later, I'm done and the pins holding the fabric taut have been removed.  I've got a few heavy books resting on top of the piece right now, hopefully correcting the slight warping of the board that I didn't notice until after I got the first half of the lacing done....
