My Band Sampler 35 – Canberra Day – Detail 582 March 10th, 2008

Today is Canberra Day…A little history, The site to build Australias Capital city was chosen in 1908 and was named Canberra in 1913 making today our 95th year as a city.

Canberra Day

At the start of the seam I have done a stylized Black Mountain Tower, it is a telecommunications tower built in the late 1970s and a significant Canberra Landmark…I have stitched the tower with wool thread because the site of Canberra was sheep farms before the city was built…

The words are stem stitch done with 2 strands of cotton floss.
