Leaving the foundation "family" underneath. Now you see my process. Do I know what it will look like when it is done? Sometimes knowing when to stop is important. Not everything I try ends up perfect, or the way I imagine.
My talented & crafty friend from Church, KellyB, made this string art double star. Reminds me of a quilt block. THIS is how you do string art (smaller nails, to start).
