New Shibori Quilt Layered and Ready to be Embroidered

I made this stitched shibori piece back in 2009 or 2010 when I was beginning to explore shibori. It took about an hour to carefully remove all the stitching after dyeing it. Finally, last weekend,  I figured out a border that worked for it.  I did some strip pieceing of commercial fabrics that played well with the central piece.  It's pinned and ready for some embroidery.

      Thanks Judy. I think having the border made up of alternating snippets of the 3 fabrics as opposed to having just large sections of 1 or 2 made all the difference in the world.
