A Visit From the Framing Fairie

  Well, I picked up my framing yesterday and as promised, I have pics to share!  The first one is a piece my local sampler group (Colonial Samplar Dames) did as a SAL.  We started it in January and it has been stitched for quite a while, just not framed.

  The next one was a frequent visitor to the blog some months ago.  She too has been waiting anxiously for her turn at the framers and she came out quite lovely if I do say so myself!!

I love the way the blue of the frame really makes the blue in the sampler pop!!  She will go to my LNS to show off her bad self for a while before she comes home to stay.
  Lastly, I managed to get the field of stars finished on One Nation this afternoon.  Next time I pick this one up I will be able to start on the stripes!!



  Its back to deadline stitching now but I hope to have that done by the end of the weekend if all goes well.  I have a ton of other things calling my name and boy, summer sure is speeding by!!  I have 272 Words slated to come out the 1st of August and I would sure like to make that date.  Someone has been waiting very patiently for that reappearance and I wouldn't want to disappoint!!
