Some of you have already finished stitching your Mary Wigham and I wonder how you would feel about immediately stitching it all over again, this time in reverse - as a mirror image? This is exactly what Aurore in France has undertaken to make a very special 'bed head' (I know that makes it sound like a bad hair day, but it's only what I learnt to call them, up in the wilds of Northern England.) Even the initials are reversed and the completion of the half medallions down the centre provides a strong design feature. It is almost finished and because of its size it is a tricky subject to photograph. But I hope you can see enough to love it, as I do.

This Mary is simply stunning. Love the white on taupe palette and the "double " design is wonderful. I am wondering what a 'bed head " is used for. Does it cover the pillows at the top of the bed, or perhaps hang over the bed?
ReplyDeleteWhatever this beauty is used for it will look marvelous.
Language moves on and I couldn't find anything close to what I mean - I know someone will help here. But I am sure you have seen those padded fabric covered panels, often on a wall against which the top of the bed goes. Something for you to lean back against when you are reading a book.....This is what we called a bed head....
ReplyDeleteHead board in the US.
ReplyDeletein the US its called a headboard, the other end of the bed is a footboard.
ReplyDeleteI am almost speechless, this is just so beautiful. A wonderful piece that is outstanding.
ReplyDeleteWOW!
ReplyDeleteThis a wonderful effort. I simply love this. The 'double' design has rendered me speechless and left me in awe.
ReplyDeleteThink of it as a padded headboard. The entire top/front of the bed is covered with this amazing & gorgeous Mary Wigham!!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations Aurore!
Wow, what a wonderful piece! I also love white on this backgroud, and the whole piece is just stunning! Thanks for sharing with us
