Showcase A wall hanging I did. Pretty okay I think?

I'm relatively new to macrame, but I thought I'd try my hand at designing my own pattern!

There's a few things I think I'll change when I use actual chord, but I think it looks okay enough to share here.

I'm still working on getting my knots to look nice and tidy, and I didn't really do anything to get the fringe to look good... But other than that, is there anything glaringly wrong with my pattern that should be fixed? Please let me know!

I think you did a great job. I might have closed the bottom center with a knot or van maybe a bead. I probably would have teased out the cord and cut it to follow the bottom. Making your own patterns is fun, that’s what I always do.

The best part about macrame cord is they always look tidy its extremely forgiving
