I'm thinking that since it's about a continuous action/process, maybe it makes sense to leave it slightly unfinished (i.e. not mounted), because otherwise it's just slightly confusing text. I'm also not sure why I didn't think of leaving the needle in it; it makes a whole lot more sense to leave the needle in this piece than in the Translation Show piece.
I'm also wondering if, since it was mounted and finished, the first piece ("I'm just trying to drown my indifference...") actually made it clear that it was referring to the process of its creation. Reading it while it was still in my hands being made was probably the most appropriate time to see it, in terms of most clearly making its point.
My next piece will be less about the process of its creation, so I need to evaluate which medium will be most appropriate. If I decide on cross-stitch, I won't display it with the others at any point. This is because the others refer to the cross-stitching process and this one will not, so it would be confusing.
