finally framed up!

today is my second full day on the farm and i'm slowly SLOWLY ticking things off the mental to-do list that i want to get done while i'm down here.

first up...



was to fill this frame, with this!
i finished up the stitching in january but it has taken me until NOW to get it in a frame.
and let's not talk about how long i've had this frame waiting for me to put something in it... *cough*21st gift*cough*



but now it's done! and off the to-do list!

now i wonder how long it will take me to get it on the wall ha ha!

next up off the list... planting my cherry tree and finishing my cape, maybe by this time tomorrow... we'll see!

what is on your mental to-do list at the moment? have you ever framed a cross stitch piece?

Glad to see you got it done. If I can, I do try and frame my own pieces. It's easy to place the glass on the material and center and cut, then I iron it before I place it in the frame. Framing here is expensive, but not as much so as in the States. Have a great weekend. Tammy

Looks lovely Nicole. Must be great to have it framed and enjoyed.

I've never done a cross stitch... but I am wanting to embroider some bits and bobs to frame around the house. Our walls are very bare.

Love your woodland sampler.
