    I have competed the first layer and covered or affixed the folded edges. I found it interesting to see what happens to the different color threads when stitched. I see the need to either emphasize or de-emphasize colors so everything blends.
    I’m using a variety of fibers. Twisted silk and rayon work well with the perle cotton. Stranded floss doesn’t work well and size 12 perle is too thin.
    I’ve been using the muslin border to audition fibers and practice stitches.
