Finished Hardanger

The completed Hardanger runner. It took me about five hour's work on Saturday morning to finish the needleweaving and hemstitching. This is the original pattern booklet and below are photos of the vest as it was designed. It was waist length and I'd wanted mine a bit longer so I purchased extra fabric and finished the missing corner on the vest back motif. That change made this work as a complete design and gave me enough fabric to complete the runner.

Gorgeous runner and so is the vest. Do we get to see a pic of the finished one?

I was so surprised to see what I thought was a comment by me - Jenny from Sydney said just what I thought. :)

I wanted to ask you where you got the widget for my book - I'd like to put one on my blog too! I've searched Amazon and can't find it.
Hmmmm

Sorry, the vest was never completed--the bit I'd done became the runner. The picture is from the kit we were given in class. Two prople in our group completed vests but I don't have a photo of either.
