I am doing a great big happy dance at the moment as I just picked up my double flips from the framer. As usual, I don't have the best picture. It's dark here already and my lighting isn't the best. This really isn't the frame that I'd envisioned when I thought about getting a frame, but it works (maybe not the best on this dark wall). Since dust happens in my house, I wanted the piece covered with glass. With the charms this required a deeper inset in whatever frame I chose. I thought about having it matted, but I decided against it since the piece had a border stitched around it, not to mention the fact that I could already hear the ka ching ka ching of the cost as we were measuring for the frame. Even with a 50% off coupon, the price tag was much more than I really wanted to pay. The dark frame contrasts well with the stitched border, much more so than the one I'd originally envisioned the piece with.
It has been a super busy week, so I've not gotten a lot of stitch time in. What I have finished, I really cannot show as they will be gifties. I decided against starting the Halloween piece that I spoke of a few posts back. It ended up being way too close to Halloween for me to even dream that I'd get it done. I'm trying to decide what to start next. I'd like to do something smaller so I can get another happy dance or two in before the end of the year.
Cheers,
