Looks fantastic in the frame. That is definately what i'm going to do with my Cross-Stitch. Now how do you put it in there?
Do you stitch it to the board that comes with the frame?

I've always loved redwork - but now I think I'm a fan of bluework! It's just beautiful.

It's beautiful! What kind of thread do you use for stitching? You're sure crossing those UFOs off of your list!

Lovely....me too...for once with a stitchery. I did it in soft terracotta shades when Mum was in her last months in the nursing home.
I framed it in red check and it hangs over a chair....there is limited wall space left after Mum' art work added to my pictures and photos.

This looks beautiful framed. I've done this stitching but made it into a cushion for a friend.

chookster yep its a christine book pattern, I used to sell them in the quilt shop I worked in a million years ago *W* love it framed too.. I joined the OPAM thingy, but never got around to actually giving the list of what I had planned to finish.. oops.. thats how much of a procrastinator I am! I have three quilts waiting for binding, three tops waiting for quilting, and um, a bazillion other things waiting...
