I’ve Been Framed!

I’m not feeling terribly talkative today, so I’ll let the photos speak for themselves.

Picasso’s Rooster by Ladybug Designs – framed by my favorite framer at Michaels:

Summer Breeze by Brittercup Designs – framed in a standard frame:

Snowflake Surprise by Laura J Perin Designs – framed in a standard frame with a mat I cut to the proper size:

I had one other piece framed at Michaels, but I can’t show it because it’s for Stitch Bitch‘s challenge.

After this, I’m reframing a crewel piece that Terry’s late mom made for us years ago. It will go back into the powder room that I finally finished painting Monday night. I’m excited to have found a standard frame that works really well with the design (since I didn’t have the design with me when I bought the frame) and a mat that I think will work okay. I didn’t have Summer Breeze with me, either, and the frame that I picked for it worked out pretty well. I’m getting good at winging it, I guess.

Well, I’m going to go and work on stretching and lacing the crewel piece. I think that it’s going to take a while before I get it to a point where I’m happy with it because it’s really puckered. Terry’s working on putting the powder room back together this weekend, so I want to have it reframed and ready to go as soon as possible.
