I wouldn't want to muck it up either. Could it not be done in washable cotton for a bag or shirt? It's just 'in theory' really, I guess, since it took so long to do. I just think that as a motif on stuff this would sell really well.

Perhaps a outline version? I might when the weather inproves take a better shot so I could turn it into a print or something to that effect, what do you think?

I like the idea of the outline version. I think that would be pwetty.

I might try that out on a tote...on some neutral coloured linen.
