Wow, that's an amazing piece of needlework! Will it be framed to view both sides?

That would be fun wouldn't it, but no, as far as the customer is concerned the back looks like spaghetti thrown at a wall!

Looks good to me :clap:

Is that Arqadia 258492348?? I like it..... but the last time I spoke to them they were going to discontinue it, pity if it's true because I use it for several things.

No, it's 258167348 which is black, 258492348 is 'walnut' - good nerdy moulding recognition though :clap:

I think one or both is missing from their current price list but both are in stock on their website, not much of the walnut but 900+ metres of the black. Both have been a favourite here for years - another nice deep rebate bites the dust :(

"nerdy moulding recognition" - never thought I'd ever be known for that :lol:

But, yes - good mouldings, shame to see them go. I reckon I'll stock up on some next order.
