Frames of London

 I can’t say enough, how lucky I am to have a fantastic framers right on my doorstep, here in Loughton.

 The first thing they framed for me was ‘Tree of Life’ from Dimensions, in 1986.

Back then I took all my finishes to a local Needlework shop for framing.  That was before I realised that the framers were actually in Loughton, where I live.

They have done some wonderful frames for me in the past, from simple frames like the one above, to an oval for my ‘Home Sweet Home’  

and the triple mounted frame they did for ‘Celtic Christmas’  to name but a few.

Yesterday, I collected my latest two from them.

First is ‘Eliza, M Stone 1881’ from Whilst Iris Naps.

I wouldn’t usually go for such a dark and ornate frame because it’s so far away from my comfort zone, but I have to say, I’m so happy with it, it’s just perfect!

The second one is much more subtle.  A very ‘safe’ White frame, edged in Silver, which again I think is prefect for ‘ Dreaming of Daisies.

While I was there collecting these, I left three more projects with them, which should be ready for collection in around  six weeks, so I need to save a few more pennies!

Happy Stitching!
