I have made a start on my Casket. I have created an embroidered knot garden for in the top of my double casket. I have removed the tray and it will sit in there.
My garden is inspired by Owen Davies' Embroidered Knot Garden book and classes.
I have created my own design and my own versions of a few aspects, whilst using some of Owen's excellent ideas also.
When it is mounted into my casket there will be mirrors on the two walls that are currently empty.
