My mother just happened to find this frame for me which had a small inspirational poster in it. I took the poster out and went to the paper store to find something special that would go with the colors. I needed it plain so it would not take away from the stitched flowers. I found a green(Just the right shade) and a brown corrugated cardboard that matched the brown in the frames from Olde Colonial. I glued the framed pieces down and thought that the in between spaces were to plain. So I got out my handy friend "the Wool" and I cut some circles, gathered them, stuffed and added lines around them. I also cut out leaves and stitched lines for the veins and of course dots for the theme of all the Funky Flowers. Then I glued them down and I am happy with it.
So just an idea to spice up some framing.

ReplyDeleteI absolutely LOVE your funky flowers, and am hoping to buy the charts for all of them quite soon (just have to find work first to pay for them...lol). I am not normally much for flower embroideries, but they are really gorgeous:) I do love most of your designs really...wish I could design things myself, but I am not artistic in that way. Keep up the good work:) X Ylva
