From the bottom of this embroidery hoop, I've sewn a very unstable, wobbling city that is held up by platforms and hinged support beams. Because of these fantastic crooked angles, the negative space created against the white cotton background is very interesting! Using black embroidery floss, I hand-sewed this entire composition, which was inspired by my drawing "Crooked City," which you can see here: http://www.etsy.com/listing/59228662/crooked-city-black-and-white-ink-print To keep this piece strictly black and white, I also colored the hoop in black paint instead of leaving it its natural wood color. It plays very well off the black embroidery thread and really makes the whole composition pop.

(I also wanted to offer an inverted version of my white-thread-on-black-fabric hoop, here: http://www.etsy.com/listing/67191798/black-and-white-embroidered)

The hoop measures approximately 6" (15.24 cm), and the backside has been left uncovered. I estimate this piece took just over 6 hours in total to create, and I can assure you every line was created with love! Because I sewed this without a pattern, it cannot be re-created and thus is unique and one of a kind.

This piece is ready to hang by the hoop screw or it can be perched on a flat surface.

For shipping, this hoop will be carefully bubble-wrapped to ensure it arrives to you safely. Insurance is already factored in the price of shipping.

MY SHIPPING POLICY:
To keep shipping costs down, I mail everything via USPS First-Class mail with delivery confirmation and tracking, unless otherwise requested (just email or convo me before you order if you want faster shipping or insurance for a slightly higher fee). If you live within the United States, I guarantee to ship your item(s) by the next business day once your payment clears through Paypal or direct checkout.
For international orders, please allow an additional day or two for me to properly package your purchase and get it to my local post office. I will issue a Paypal refund of the difference if shipping ends up costing less than what you pay.
