Daffodil Poem ~ Finished!!! and now framed!!!

[Cecilia]

It looks beautiful. Congratulations on the finish. For the book I was thinking squiggly lines to represent writing but I also think the ideas to put initials or 30 on the pages are good too.

[ali-cat]

Beautiful!! I'm not surprised you had to stay up to finish it!!

i found my accident on ebay. its year old though was in issue 15 of cross stitch collection the date says February/March 1995 I was 9 when it was "released"

Do you mind!! 1995 seems like yesterday to some of us .... those with a few extra years on you!!

[Nachstenliebe]

It came out beautifully! I think adding something to the book would be a nice touch..
I can't wait to see this framed

It's lovely! My first thought was squiggly lines, too, but 30 or initials is better, after thinking about it.

[Sarah Gixxer]

Well done on finishing this, it's lovely. I agree that stitching the initials and 30 in the book would be a great way to personalise it and make the book look "written in". I would practise writing out the lettering on squared paper so you can make sure you're happy with the position and angle of them before you stitch.

i would of been nearly 9 lol!....ohh to be 8 again lol!

It's beautiful!

I'd put your initials on one page and the date on the other.

[silviaciuchi]

This is so lovely, the tender colours make it sweet and "readable", congratulations!

Great finish. A really beautiful piece

[Mabel Figworthy]

A beautiful finish!

[dollystitcher]

What a pretty design and a wonderful finish, well done

[Capricious]

I feel the book is looking a bit empty and want to ut something in there but what? i was thinking 3 0 on the pages but oh idk ... any ideas?

Congratulations on the finish, Lisa. It looks very charming! I think it would be cute to have a little daffodil on the pages, or any other tiny motif already in the chart. Or you could always stitch in your initials!

I bought a frame for this today as MIL is going to Wales on the 14th, and she will drop off the pile of things I have for Pauls aunt. so far ive ogt this poem, the anniversary card, her husbands birthday card, her sons birthday card, a cd of wedding photos, I think thats it but who knows.

anyway, i got the frame, but the smaller size was too small and the next one up is way big, but i can get a mount. the frame lady was shut so i couldnt get a frame from her as wilko's (where i got the frame from) had no mounts so what colour mount shall i go for?





i havent mounted it yet. just popped it in the frame, the material is still hanging out

[karen4bells]

love your frame choice and I'd likely just opt not to have a mount at all, looks great as it, just center up your stitched picture and frame it that way.

[Rose]

Super!!!!

[Cockneystitcher]

Thats looks so nice.

[Mabel Figworthy]

Actually I rather like it without a mount, it gives it air/space. I know if there's glass you'll need something to keep it away from the stitches but you could use sapcers instead of a mount?

[cassle]

Very very pretty!!! I can't believe you stitch all those words!! It's so amazing!!!
