Wow this is an amazing work of art! I never even knew there were such gorgeous fabrics around! My own piteous attempts at hand sewing only amounted to one pillow case, that's it. If I had more time I would love to learn how to embroider, but it's soooo time consuming! (yes I tried) Drawing the designs I want is so much quicker *g*

Anyway, I love how you put the pieces together it looks very coherent!
And so many wonderful people on dreamwidth are a fan of the O'Brian series, I might have to read it...(I saw the film and liked it very much).
