Finished It Friday!

Lookie!  I'm done.  I finished the edges, added the purple flowers she wanted, and have it mounted & matted.  Oh, and I signed it too as usual on the mat and stitched into the art.

'Denmark' 2012 (detail)

I'm mailing this to Australia frame-less for the buyer to save on postage fees.  It will go into a standard 8x10 frame.


Wouldn't you know it?  As one thread-painting commission rolls out, another rolls in!  I was asked to do a 7x9 piece.  It will be a commission like none I've done before.  "Jut make me something.  Whatever you feel like making."  Oh my!  She wants a lot of hand stitching, a summer scene, and perhaps some trees with more land than sky.  I think I know exactly which one I will do...

But first... on with the big memory quilt of Steffi's.
Have a great day!

Monika, you continue to amaze and delight with your work. Wouldn't you love to hear the squeal when the new owner in Australia opens the package?! It's a simple scene, but rendered so beautifully by your talented hands.
