Making another scene on the design wall

Over the weekend I finished hand stitching down the shapes on this wool scene.
My mother took a workshop many years ago--maybe even decades--
and cut out and pinned this scene to a base fabric.
 
I took ownership of it over the holidays
and tweaked it a bit,
removing a building in one corner
and adding a few more hills.

I'd like to make it significantly bigger by adding borders of wool suiting.
And then I will extend the lines of the hills into the background
with hand and machine stitches.
 
I haven't ruled out cutting up the scene and sewing it back together.
So far, I'm just thinking about it.
 
I'm linking up to Judy at Patchwork Times.
