Default S&W Something Unusual

This is a String Art piece, mounted on 1/2" plywood, that a very close lady friend of mine did for me in 1976.
It has over 1000' of thread and over 200 brass nails. It's 23"x23" and cut colored felt was used for the background.
It's a "one of a kind" and I wouldn't part with it for all the tea in China!
I thought you might find it interesting!

That is very good work. I am always amazed at the things some people are able to create. Any “art” that I attempt looks about the same now as it did when I was an elementary school student.

A thousand pair of trousers were left un mended in order to make this work of art.

Holy smoke that’s beautiful!
I can’t imagine how many hours were spent creating that work of art.
Very nice!
