Lord Of The Rings T Shirt

Another birthday craft-work...
On Wednesday, it's the birthday of my dear friend Becky, a fellow book-lover. We both especially love fantasy, but she in particular LOVES Lord of the Rings.
Hence the gargantuan task of... That's right... Sewing the Ring inscription around the collar of a t-shirt.

The front

The back

Detail!

It's just some goldenrod thread, backstitched a lot on a plain white t-shirt. It took a damned long time to stitch! About 6-7 hours. on the plus side, my backstitch is a lot better now...
