"UB 610" - My first try to self-lace a pattern

urmel

Inspired by the laced work of bluetooth2005 and with the tutorial of DELETED (THANKS A LOT, its very helpful to work with!!!) I tried to do it myself.

UB 610 "Spaziergang zu den drei alten Eichen"
I finished this one already in 2011; first I decided to work it as a wall hanging but I wasnt very happy with the result.
So, Ive bought a frame and today I found some time  to do my first try in lacing.
I was a bit difficult but Ive done it!
Here are some pics of my work:

1. step: sew a line of basting stitches around the pattern


2. step: pinning (terrible job :Q)



3. step: lacing (always afraid that the thread breaks off, but everything went well :) )



4. step: knock a nail into the wall (hello neighbours!!) :lol:P

5. step: FINISHED

Fazit: You need a little bit (more) time for the self-lacing and framing but you can also save much money.....
(a professional framing of this one should cost approx. 150 € :o, DIY including frame only ~ 25 €! :loveliness: )

Thanks for looking, I hope, you like my work :)
