Here's a picture of the lovely kitty who's replacing the Shakespeare Sampler on my scroll frame:
And here's her significant other, who will get stitched in due course (ladies first!)
Once they're both done, I plan to have them framed in plain black frames and hang them on the wall facing each other.
So far I've only done four of the 11 rows of solid black at the top, so it doesn't look too inspiring at the moment, but I'll post a pic when it starts getting more interesting.

Those are so majestic. They will look so good. and feel free to post a pic of the black stitching if you need encouragement to keep up with it. Once you get to the lioness though, this one will be awesome.

The lady is looking sternly at something - maybe her significant other??
They are both gorgeous and what a lovely idea for the framing and hanging positions .
