A Massive Undertaking - A Tapestry in the Works
11 years ago
Well. Some of you may have seen this lovely right here ----> 
She is fabulous, and you should watch her if you haven't.
BUT I DIGRESS
She created this freaking flawless art for myself and my mate ( http://www.furaffinity.net/view/13573678/ ) which, now that we're done freaking out over how pretty it is, we want made in to a tapestry for whenever we get a place together. So I figured that I'd be the one to make said tapestry, being crafty and enjoying that kind of thing.
Little did I know how massive this tapestry is going to be.
35 x 60 inches doesn't really seem all that large at first, but laying out the fabric I'll be embroidering... Wow. I was not sufficiently prepared for how large this thing will end up being. Damn.
Anyways.
My point being.
I'll be working on this thing for a long while. Because it'll be hand embroidered. All of it.
So I will not be open for commissions at all during this time, as I'd like to focus solely on this... monster.
But, deciding this also lead me to wonder.
Would any of you be interested in having your own artwork (or art that someone else made for you (given permission to do so, of course)) made in to a tapestry of sorts? I'd have different sizes than this one, obviously, but, just out of curiosity, would anyone want something like that? It would be expensive, size depending, of course (I've already spent $50 on mine so far, and haven't even bought every color of thread I'll need or started actually working on it), but I figured I'd ask you guys if it's something that you have an interest in?
