a big idea: embroidery hoop collage

Problem #1:  My upstairs hallway walls are white and bare.  Blah blah blah...

Problem #2:  I'm not sure what to do with my vintage camera embroideries and shift key sampler.  They are all shut away in drawers.

Solution = an embroidery collage!!!

I love it when two problems present a really creative solution.  Of course now I have to work on some more embroideries.  Four hoops do not a collage make!

While I'm working on stitching up some more, here is a collection of my favorite collages.

    Boy, that's pretty clever! I would not have thought of collages! I have 'one' embroidery hoop hanging on the wall.

    I love the hanging collage! They are all gorgeous actually, but the hanging one is awesome. Can't wait to see what you come up with. :)
