<p>[QUOTE=&quot;ValerieK, post: 4356771, member: 7360&quot;]Sorry for late reply!&nbsp; The wider edge is, rather strangely, on the cut edge, so the embroidery fits on three sides and there is more spare space on one cut edge.&nbsp; The cut edges are very loosely finished with a kind of buttonhole stitch.&nbsp; I would have thought that the embroiderer would have shortened that edge to match, but I think that this piece was made to be displayed on a particular table, and the wider edge went at the back, which is why that piece of cloth is much less faded than the other side.&nbsp; I have drapted the cloth with a dark portion exposed to the winter light - very short and mostly cloudy at the moment - and will see if it gradually fades the cloth.&nbsp; The wool is quite colourfast, the stitching on the faded cloth has not faded with it, so don&#039;t worry about damage to it![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
