Well, it's all done, and I am one relieved Deviant!

Here are some other pics...

The main pic that I will put in my gallery showed it wrapped twice, this one shows it wrapped three times.

I used a French (enclosed) seam where it loops together.

Along the sides are rolled hems (about .125" wide), and really, they were the most difficult part of the sewing. I learned how to do these decades ago when I worked in a bridal gown sweat shop (aka "Hell"). It's a time-consuming, difficult hem but the results are worth it. I used silk thread.

Full length shot, showing the overall pattern & size. It's about 12.75" wide, and an 80" long loop.

I'm pretty pleased with this, the colors came back after the steaming & washing as I had intended them to, and I had very minimal mistakes on the one I am giving to a friend as a thank you for his help in building the steamer - he's planning to give it to his wife as an X-Mas present.  :)

Onto the next one... Another infinity scarf, same size, different pattern, and this one in a turquoise color scheme.
