Take a bath by Calico Crossroads, all the frames were made by Shari's hubby.
I picked up the frames Friday and framed the pieces that night.

Last year Kayden made this frame for me. But I needed it modified for the stitched piece to fit in the opening and Shari's hubby did a great job. Dara started stitching this piece in 2007 and I finished it in 2010
Be Mine, sorry I stitched this so long ago. I don't remember who the designer is or what year I stitched it.

Feels so good to have some of my stitching in frames and hanging on the walls.

Tutorial

I added another tutorial "Pin Keeps", last week. Feel free to share with your cross stitching friends. I will try to put one together on framing your cross stitch soon.

Hope everyone had a great week and thanks for stopping by. If you have the time, please leave a comment.
