Carriage House Samplings A Stitchers Prayer. This frame is just PERFECT !! It really brings out the colors of the piece.
And June Morning from the Goode Huswife using Belle Soie thread conversion provided by Jean at Attic Needlework. Thanks Jean....I love this piece and Jill did a wonderful job of framing and matting....look at the flower and strawberry cutouts Jill made...AWESOME.
Blackbird Designs from their book Joyeux Noel, Tis The Season. The frame and the mats that Jill painted are OVER THE TOP !! Look at the snowflakes, and holly and berries. Wonderful !!! It makes me smile every time I look at it.
Jill's work is stunning. I just send the stitched pieces to her and she does her MAGIC. I am so thrilled. I wish each and every one who visits my blog could see these works of art in person... Well actually you can....if you come to Florida for a visit! These will be up on the wall(s) soon!!

what a fantastic early Christmas present. Sure does inspire me to do the 15 new start challenge. Could I count each motif on the Charlotte Clayton sampler as one start ? Ha ! Ha! How inspiring and how absolutely beautiful. Thanks for sharing. Merry Christmas! Jo Ann
Oh my gosh !!! These are absolutely beautiful. It is amazing how frames and matting make everything even more beautiful... Enjoy them !!!
Hi Cari, Santa must have thought you've been a very good girl, your finishes are gorgeous! Nice to see Rejoice framed, I'm about 3/4 done, have been for the last two years lol:) Enjoyed having a peek around your blog. Happy Holidays and many blissful stitches to you in 2011.
Oh, gosh! You must've been good this year--Santa sure brought you a haul! ;)
OH MY !!!!! What a magnificent array of stitching and framing. They are all so beautiful but the one that brought tears to my eyes was "Tis the Season" it is so amazing. I have just received mine from the framer and was very unhappy with it - more so now. Thanks for sharing your lovely work.
