Applied a stiffener to the hemp sections–right, left, top, bottom. Then applied another application of the sittener to the entire piece.
The stiffener helps to keep everything in place. It also can change the color, texture, and visual feel of the piece.
Need to find a rust colored yarn to bind the three pieces together. If I can’t find what I want, I will use the last bit of rust colored wool that I have. If it is not enough, I am will use gray wool to finish the piece.
