To cut or not to cut - that is the question?


This is one of the pieces from my collection that I am contemplating cutting up. It has a number of stains on it that won't come out. The individual sections are very pretty and I think they would look good as a small wall hanging.

  1. I would say go for it. Recycle the beauty into another beautiful form.

  4. Oh you have to cut it, it would be such a shame for beautiful stitching to hide thanks to stains.

  8. What a pity to cut it! Is there no way to hide the stains, maybe by embroidering some flowers sparse on the fabric?

  9. Well, it sure is beautiful Carol - but if you don't recycle it, will it go back in the drawer?
    Cut it and give it a new lease of life!
