Framed

I finally got some things framed:

Twister, finished 2012, this piece will hang in our entryway along with other black/white/red things.

Mystery Retreat, Las Vegas, 2009, this huge project has been finished for 5 years!.  I had it stuck on my wall with tacks in Vegas, but now it is finally properly framed.  I actually use this piece as a stitch sampler and refer to it often!

My version of Jean Hilton's Puzzle Purse, my "Puzzle Piece".  The Puzzle Purse was a Cyberpointers' SAL in 2013.  I did not want a purse, so reworked the design area into a square.  It was quite a challenge, which was Jean Hilton's intention!  I'm pleased to have it framed now.

  1. I like your treatment of the puzzle purse. I've got the threads and canvas to stitch mine, but haven't started yet. I'm going to make a purse out of it, using dark blue leather, and carry it as a statement piece. Someday.....

  4. Your TWISTER is fabulous. Do you have a thread list you'd be willing to share?
