riffclown Posted November 17, 2019 Report Share Posted November 17, 2019 Next project will be two kites that will mirror each other. Will use R,O,Y,(FY),(FG),G,(LB),B,V variation across the face. Gray Fade Darker in the middle with the White Mesh interspersed among the gray. This will probably go much slower than my other recent projects due to piecework on several of the strips needed to utilize some of the shorter strips in my strip box. 3 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully will be able to piece the center tomorrow and start sewing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

riffclown Posted November 24, 2019 Author Report Share Posted November 24, 2019 During all my final QC before sewing I noticed a misalignment along one seam (Yellow Circles). This is why I always back-light and photograph my efforts.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
riffclown Posted November 24, 2019 Author Report Share Posted November 24, 2019 Same seam after correction.. Fortunately the sail is still quite oversized and this will not affect the final result. A few stitches and it would have been too late. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
riffclown Posted November 26, 2019 Author Report Share Posted November 26, 2019 Went with Red and Purple wear strips to blend with the sail better.. LE is White, Edge Binding is Black. Only framing remains.. Kite will be finished today. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
