Just picked this up from my parents today:

Here is a close-up of the frame:

Think it is a fitting piece to be one of the first of my stitched pieces to be professionally framed!

Now to start saving for Butterfly Lace to be framed - totally worth every penny though!

I've been holding off buying that chart until I stitch at least one of the Chatelaines I have in my to do pile, I think you have convinced me that I NEED it. A beautiful piece of stitching and the frame sets it off a treat.

That looks beautiful Amanda. The frame is perfect for it :wub: . It looks very sophisticated :applesauce: :applesauce: . It's so worth having it framed professionally after the beautiful job you made of stitching it :D .
