Well it's a woman's prerogative to change her mind (or so my mother told me) so I changed my mind on which would be the first verse to go under my Amazing Grace panel, and here it is done!
As I am planning to hang it first at Easter, this verse sums up Easter in a nutshell so it seemed the obvious choice.
I have worked the lettering in free machine embroidery, going over each letter three time (approximately). I am very pleased at my first effort at this. I had to do a few letters at a time and then take a short break as I found holding the fabric taut whilst moving it under the needle was quite stressful on my thumb joints. It was much quicker to do than it would have been doing hand embroidery though. I want to do some more now!
Now I need to add hooks to the top panel and loops to the bottom panel and join the two together. (ooh, and rub out that full stop that got marked in the wrong place)
