:applesauce: :applesauce: :applesauce: Congratulations of beautifully stitching this wonderful piece!. I know your friend will adore it. The one I did for my sister (mini Amethyst) hangs in her office. When I stitched this, my LNS was still in business and did the framing for me. We decided on a plain silver frame which really set the whole piece off. You can see it here or here. I prefer simple wooden frames in general, but as soon as I saw how this would look in silver I knew it was the right one. Think it would be very pretty with your diamond.

Also, are you aware of the HAED rewards program. It runs twice a year and is very easy to use. You can find it on the HAED website (which I undertand is going thru a major revision this week-end so you might want to wait till that is done, hopefully with major improvements). You get a free chart which is the same as the completed chart. So you could get another mini. Worth checking out.

What a lovely finish! :applesauce: :applesauce:

She's pretty much framed as is, isn't she? I wonder if a wrap-around mounting might do the trick?

This is an absolute stunning finish. I usually take my pieces in and hold frames up to them to get a general idea. I'm sure that whatever you choose will really set this piece off.

Thank you for sharing your pictures. :D
