Hey,
Friends!
We’ve
gotten some rain with threats of storms the last few days, so it seems like
summer is on the way. We really needed
the rain, and a day once in a while is fine by me.
Last
weekend was IHSW (International Hermit and Stitch Weekend). If you’re interested in participating read
more about it on Joysze
blog. The next one is May 18-20.
During my hermiting, I finished up Adam and
Eve by Little House Needleworks. This
week I found an 8x8 frame at Michael’s (50% off plus 20% coupon), and here it
is! It went in and out a few times, but I finally like how it turned out – not exactly like the one
Diane
used, but it works for me. So begins my A&E wall.
I
also got a frame for the Primitive Needle 1632 piece (on the black walnut stained
fabric) and it looks just like I wanted.
This one is from Hobby Lobby (50% off).
With my alterations to the design, it came out to fit the mat I had cut at 6x8. Here’s how the wall looks now. 
Thanks
for stopping by, today and always. Your kind words are appreciated!
I'm grateful for computers!
PeaceëLoveëJoy
and Happy Stitching

Your tombie wall looks great! I need to stitch more of them - I just love 'em and yours look awesome!

Wow, fantastic framing and beautiful finished pieces! Love them all!
ReplyDeleteYour framed finishes are great. I love your tomstone angel...it is just perfect on that frame and with that frame. Hope you have a good stitchy weekend....
ReplyDeleteI think that your tombies and A&E's are wonderful. Great frames for all of them.

ReplyDeleteWow! You found some great frames at great prices. Those look fabulous. We really need some rain here too.
ReplyDeleteOh, I love it when I find a great bargain, don't you, Charlene? These are both wonderful frames and your "theme" walls are looking great!
ReplyDeleteYou certainly found some great frames, and with the coupons--great deals! You A&E wall has a great start! Cute piece! Florida was great--back home now! More later! Hugs!
ReplyDeleteYou are so productive, Charlene. I think there's a piece in my drawer that's been waiting nearly forever to be framed. Do you use glass in the frames? Great stitching, BTW!
ReplyDeleteWonderful frame-ups, Charlene! Don't you just LOVE coupons and sales?
ReplyDeleteCharlene, I love the frames!! Great pickings--and on sale, too. You go girl! :)
ReplyDeleteYour framed pieces look great and both your themed walls are coming along nicely.

I like when one can use some of the ready-made frames and your pieces look wonderful in them.
