I found some Australian fabric with a design called "Women dancing rain " by Shirleen Campbell that I bought to border the piece.Here it is finished.
I enjoyed this project immensely - from concept to finish. I especially enjoyed creating on the fly. I am considering trying another one using a darker piece of fabric and a different photo, just to see if I can improve. It is also a great travel project. I'm not sure if it will fit with what others are doing for the Guild's Icons Exhibition, but it's been great for me.

Just fantastic. Great concept, and well eecuted.
this has worked beautifully and the fabric as a border could not be better to show off your ladies
The overall effect of the finished piece is stunning, and I just love all the different details in the background figures.Will look forward to seeing the darket piece. Who will you choose?
I love the detail in the little figures around the life-like Ms Gillard. Very interesting embroidery!
As I said last time, I think this is a tremendous piece, both creative and meaningful. If it is not in the usual way at the show, so much the better!
