Artist's Comments

Well, sort of ;)
It’s been a long time since I felt inspired to do a piece from scratch & as this is the Mackenzie emblem, it just had to be done & i did enjoy doing it.
I have used 2 cameras & taken many shot’s with different settings to achieve this one shot, maybe because it’s black it just didn‘t want to focus:shrug: This is the clearest I could get it.

The design is one of & done with his kind permission :hug: [link]

Actual piece measures 16x161/2 inches.

Stitches used… for anyone that’s interested.
French knots
Long & short.
Satin (yuk).
Stem.
Split.
Straight.

Time taken..around 80hrs, over around 5mths. Ok… I’m a slow worker :giggle:

Excellent piece and I think the photo is great, although photo can never do justice to the original piece:D

I prefer diligent worker over slow, too:P

80 hours :o whoo :XD: it's really good :nod: if you want to focus it then I guess just focus on something that's of equal distance away as the thing you want to take a photo of, then turn and face the thing, and I guess move forward/back a little if it's not in perfect focus. Aaanyhow :hug:
