Swirly Girly

Here is a recent stitch sketch that I did.  (Yes, I know I've been lazy with them lately.)


23 front


Then I was going through the storage loft yesterday, in search of recyclable non-ferrous metals, and discovered these parts from an abandoned project.  I must have abandoned this six years ago, put it out of sight, and forgot about it.


architectural element
This section is a little under 4 feet wide and I have 2 of them.


acanthus leaves in progress
These are acanthus leaves in-progress, most likely part of the same project.  They are in the six to seven inch size range.


I don't know about you all, but I see the swirly girly connections and possibilities.  Honestly, I haven't been excited about steelwork in a long time, but this is reviving some interest.
I am not sure what I will do with the large scroll elements.  I might make them into 2 twin size headboards, or add to them and make a king size headboard and footboard for my own bed.  The acanthus leaves would just be fun to finish up and make into wall art.  hmmmmm.....
