I thought I would contribute to the new challenge site , based on Gothic arches. This is my first attempt at one, approached with trepidation, but enthusiasm.
The theme was school, so I went a bit Victorian and used images of an abacus and a satchel, as well as the predictable letters (probably not Victorian!!) The lace went a bit awry when I stitched, but actually I quite like that. The image was from Nancy Dooren's blog.

Beautiful background and it's funny, but it seems that I saw the image on another arch, no ?
