Working with Idle Women

Here is a picture of Idle Women, the picture I am making for the Sheffield show.  (It was going to be about The Patience Kershaw Rapper Women, but that didn't really have a wartime connection.)
It is about the Idle Women, who were the women whose War Work was on the canal boats, delivering coal and such like. (Have I told you this before?)

 
Do you like it?  I'm thinking the text on it will be: Idle women, women's work, idle work.  Does it work?  The picture is kinda reminiscent of the crochet work in the post "Blythe and The Water People", don't you think?
