I hope you are enjoying the weekend. the fire is going here.You know it is Winter, especially when it gets to minus 2 overnight and there is lots of ice on the windscreen of the car.
On Thursday I picked up the two cross stitch samplers from the framers. Very very happy with the framing.
David's 21st Birthday Sampler. |
I asked for a old fashioned black frame. I was first shown two others, loved them both but they were more suitable for a female. The lady then showed me this one. Instant love. It reminded me of a old blackboard from a school. It really sets the cross stitch of perfectly.
The other one I had framed was the sampler I did earlier on in the year.
"Fir Tree Sampler." |
This was the cross stitch that I had to re-do several parts. Plus I did do alterations to the pattern and put on my own border to make it more me.
Happy days.

Beautiful samplers and frames! I especially love that blue frame. How great to get your projects back and ready to display. Love having a fire going when it's cold out - enjoy!
