A Finish Finally

Thank-you to all who have left comments on my last post.
Lynda Ruth from http://twododo.blogspot.com was right about Mother Teresa, she led an amazing life.

I took my finished piece to Michaels yesterday to have it framed, I am not sure I will like the finished framing, I will have to see, the colors in the piece just did not go with any colors of matting but found a beautiful frame, they honored the 80% off coupon I had, she even gave me a little more off, what a great place.


I did the two not sure which looks the best, I used initials of my parents the years they were born Mikes parents initials and years they were  born and the dates mike and I were born, I also used our initials for the middle of the leaf circle.


It is snowing here today I am so sick of snow and cold weather, we have about 5 inch's on the ground so far, it started snowing about 5:00 a.m.
I hope you are you are having great weather.
I will be working on some aprons for the gift shop at the Pioneer Park gift shop, we have a very old looking village here in Annandale, Mn. one of the volunteers asked me to cut out and sew together the aprons, I am enjoying a little change.

I hear my latte machine calling my name, I will be picking out a project to work on later today, I will post what I am doing tomorrow.

Thank-you for stopping by

Catherine

Sounds like you got a great deal on the frame for that beautiful finish, Catherine! Can't wait to see the final result :)

Yes, we got more snow today, too, but we have had a fairly easy winter in western PA so I'm not going to complain! Enjoy your day!

What a deal on the framing! I am watching the snow come down so hard right now!!!

It is snowing here too today, but only 1-3 inches followed by freezing rain and then rain. We haven't had hardly any snow so I really don't mind it right now. I hope you like your framing. I have happily found a local framer who does needlework so I don't have to go to Michael's or ACMoore anymore.

I hope the framing is just what you want Catherine! Sounds like you got good deal either way. Sorry you are still getting snow; we are kinda cold here in Tucson too - only 49 today...yuck!
