I was recently contacted to design and embroider this piece for a wife to give to her husband. She is from Capetown, South Africa and he is from Charleston, South Carolina. She asked me to design something that had representation of both places and to include the phrase, “You are my greatest adventure.” I decided to make a blended skyline containing some of the specific icons she suggested to show their two worlds joining together. Rainbow Row, Cooper River Bridge, Table Mountain, and Bo Kaap are included in the “skyline.” Colors from Rainbow Row and Bo Kaap provided inspiration for the lettering. I really like how the finished piece turned out! I tried really hard to keep it somewhat masculine since it was a gift for her husband.
