Well I finally got it back from the framer and it is stunning!
We spent ages searching for the right frame. I first thought I wanted a wood frame but they were all too heavy. In the end we found this gold and silver gilt frame.
Here is a photo with flash better colours.
I love the job they did and they fixed their first mistake without a complaint. So happy with it.
I also received my Fabric of the Month from Colours of the Outback. Because of Hurricane Sandy her order of 32ct Lugana was delayed so instead of waiting she offered me 32ct opal instead without charging me extra. I love this piece. It's called Purple Army.
I also realised I forgot to show you last months fabric.
It's called Great Australian Bite.
I also bought some magazines this week.
I finally found a newsagent that had the Christmas ornament magazine. There are some awesome designs in there.
I know Christmas is only about 6 weeks away but it sure doesn't feel like it yet!
Happy Stitching :D
