I had framed this myself during Covid and the frame selection was so poor then&#8230;I have longed for a better frame. Here it is:<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"519\" height=\"600\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.marysthread.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/img_2025-07-06-193801-1.jpg?resize=519%2C600&#038;ssl=1\" class=\"wp-image-7122\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.marysthread.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/img_2025-07-06-193801-1.jpg?w=519&amp;ssl=1 519w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.marysthread.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/img_2025-07-06-193801-1.jpg?resize=260%2C300&amp;ssl=1 260w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 519px) 100vw, 519px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p>Next is Jane Marshall by Hands Across the Sea. I love dark distressed wood! Can you tell?<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"450\" height=\"600\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.marysthread.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/img_2025-07-06-193817-1.jpg?resize=450%2C600&#038;ssl=1\" class=\"wp-image-7123\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.marysthread.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/img_2025-07-06-193817-1.jpg?w=450&amp;ssl=1 450w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.marysthread.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/img_2025-07-06-193817-1.jpg?resize=225%2C300&amp;ssl=1 225w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 450px) 100vw, 450px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p>And then Quaker Garden from Blackbird Designs. Ooohhh. the frame we picked was so perfect. It lived on my eggshell blue bedroom wall and I love seeing it every day.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"640\" height=\"387\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.marysthread.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/img_2025-07-06-193826-1.jpg?resize=640%2C387&#038;ssl=1\" class=\"wp-image-7124\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.marysthread.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/img_2025-07-06-193826-1.jpg?w=993&amp;ssl=1 993w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.marysthread.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/img_2025-07-06-193826-1.jpg?resize=300%2C181&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.marysthread.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/img_2025-07-06-193826-1.jpg?resize=768%2C464&amp;ssl=1 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p>And finally, Sampler Roll by Samplers Remembered. This one was supposed to be finished as a roll but I didn&#8217;t have enough fabric on the sides for that. I love how it came out framed. I have thought maybe I&#8217;d stitch it again in order to do the roll finish but it&#8217;s not a priority.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"640\" height=\"383\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.marysthread.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/img_2025-07-06-193746-1.jpg?resize=640%2C383&#038;ssl=1\" class=\"wp-image-7125\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.marysthread.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/img_2025-07-06-193746-1.jpg?w=1003&amp;ssl=1 1003w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.marysthread.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/img_2025-07-06-193746-1.jpg?resize=300%2C179&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.marysthread.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/img_2025-07-06-193746-1.jpg?resize=768%2C459&amp;ssl=1 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p>So, that&#8217;s some more of my stitching life these days. It&#8217;s so nice to enjoy the stitching once it&#8217;s complete by having it framed and on the wall!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This year I brought several older projects over to Sandy, the framer extraordinaire, at The Attic and have her fix them up for me.
