I played with a favorite photo app, 'TheDianaPhoto.' I took my stitching photos and combined them with images in my collection of the sea, which added lots of blue. Also, some of the fabric strips had been dyed in indigo .... so my flag was not all white anyway. Soon, they will ALL be completely blue! ;>)Sweetpeahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08000313813136860758noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4434342308817990711.post-82250382021424952152015-06-05T19:29:30.133-07:002015-06-05T19:29:30.133-07:00There are definitely worry stitches in this flag, ...There are definitely worry stitches in this flag, Penny, altho I like to imagine them becoming somewhat weightless stitched with silk threads.

I'm looking forward immensely to seeing how they are hung & then watching [hopefully thru India's pix] the disintegration over time .... fraying, shredding, dropping "to the ground to mingle with each other" as you say.
