That's lovely. Venice is one of my favourite cities and the colours in that are gorgeous - so rich and set off so well by the gold frame

Thanks, everyone. We are very pleased with it, and just thought it was exactly the right time to get it out of the pillowcase in my "finished pieces" box and do something with it.
Better than that: huge bouquet (he's not generally given to buying flowers) and dinner out. After all these years, we still have things to talk about. Not bad.backafteradozenyrs wrote:What a lovely Anniversary gift to yourself! It is a beautiful masterpiece (I hope your dh took you out for at least
