Small woven piece

A small woven piece with handstitching. It´s a bit too large for a pincushion, so I`m not sure yet what to do next. I saw small cushions called friendship cushions somewhere on the net a while ago and I think that is a good idea for this size. I´m slowly getting used to this sort of handstitching and the lines are becoming clearer and straighter. I like lines and although I also like the wavy look of kantha stitching this straight line is more "me".

It looks stunning! It's difficult to keep straight lines when hand stitching, so this is very impressive.

this would be pretty as a sachet stuffed with lavender -- of course, it's very pretty as is -- I like the varied colors of thread, in particular.
