OK. After much fiddling, I am still fiddling.
This color dyed uneven, poms are olive, band is greenish brown. Two color poms strip.
The band can't be hidden, it's quite thick and part of the poms. But those colors look good on this. A flat finish or box top would be easiest, and if I find something at HL, may finish in that method. Tried to glue this strip on first and hand sew backing for pillow finish, my Aleene Fabric Fusion did not work at all. Tacky will work but was frustrated so stopped.
Looking at this from the back, it wouldn't bother me to have the full band visible and attached to back after construction. If no suitable container is found between a packed appointment week, a pillow with full pom back will be it. Didn't see a similar color pom (close to dmc 730's) online.
Thanks for info on Lady Dot.

Thanks for the laugh!
Whatever finish you choose will be perfection ;-)
That tomato!!! Hilarious! Disregard my comment about framing on your previous post... Should have known you'd be way ahead of me and I like all of your musings.
Oh your tomato is fun!!!
You will find a way to finish your stitching and it will be great as always.
Take care, Truus from Holland
Love the pots AND your tomato!! LOL
Ha! That tomato is too funny! It really is comical the way some vegetables grow. We had a carrot this year that had one extremely long appendage-looking thing (ahem!) right in front. Really hilarious. Your finish is so pretty--I haven't used pompoms much in my finishing so I'm of no help. I know you'll figure things out, though, Marly! How can it be the end of October already :(
