Mr would like me to turn this into a wall hanging. I like the idea of hanging this in our bedroom wall. I’m sure at what point to stop. This is obviously intended for a tall person to wear and the width of it means I can guess how heavy even a shorter one would be for me. I have no idea how I’m going to mount this.

Last week I sourced some poly wadding and a knit type fabric for the backing. Adding some garter stitch strips to the sides, before quilting it. Then I will need to embroider the leaf veins on.
