My daughter had an asian floorscreen that her cat destroyed about 5 years ago.
I would describe the fabric that was used as about as flimsy as light weight embroidery stabilizer so therefore easy for a cat to claw up and destroy.
It was all one panel and had asian flowers painted on it.
I decided that I could make it an even better floorscreen than what it was by
embroidering panels (48) for each opening in the floor screen.
Well, once the frame was all taken apart it was found to be very flimsy so a new inner framework of wood to hold each embroidered panel was made by my husband and painted black by me. I embroidered each section in a separate panel and then positioned them very carefully on the back of the frame and stapled them on. This project took over a year to finish as it took quite a while not only to embroider each panel, but just figuring out how to unassemble, fix and reassemble it all! Many hours went into this project! I am very happy with the end result as is my daughter:))
What do you think of it?
P.S. My daughter doesn't own a cat anymore so no worry about this one getting destroyed!
A beautiful screen!
I love your design choices.

It was great to cross this big project off of my list of projects to do. Plus, it made my daughter so happy that I completed it.
Not with just doing the embroidery... that was the easy part! The rest is what took so long.
She will appreciate this showing uo of loving her for sure!
Great job, really. You have so much patience over this long period of working
What a remarkable testament to your wonderful work!
