The frame is a custom made one from Picture Frames Express and I know the stitching doesn’t look straight in the photo, but I promise it is, it’s the angle it's leaning at making it look like that.
With that done and dusted, I have made a start on my November ornament for the 12 in 23 Sal.
This is Winter Woodland from Patricia Ann Designs and it’s from the 2023 Special Ornament edition of Just Cross Stitch.
I’ve done my own floss conversion from my stash.
I will be my 11th of 12 for the Sal and it’s also my 3rd
start of the #celebrate50startalong
with @pennysdaughtershares
I know that I’ve not finished my October ornament yet, but I’ve been saving that to stitch on a longish train journey that I’ll be doing this weekend coming. I can’t stitch without magnification but the perforated paper is fine.
Happy Stitching!
Sue

ReplyDeleteThank you Robin. I was a bit worried the frame was too bright, but I happy with how it looked in the end. Happy Stitching! Sue x
DeleteThe Mighty Acorn is wonderful....very pretty frame. I love the tiny deer on the ornament.....very peaceful scene.
ReplyDeleteIt wasn't easy trying to pick out a frame on line and I was a bit worried, but in the end I was happy with the way it looked. Happy Stitching! Sue x
DeleteWhat a gorgeous framed finish, Sue! I just love it and I also love the ornament you are working on. I had also picked that out of the 2023 ornament issue as one I'd like to stitch at some point :) Hope you have a relaxing weekend!
