Ida Mae Black Brown Frame
The Goode Huswife "Ida Mae Crow" (c)2009 (not oop!)
Fabric: 35 ct. Straw WDW Linen
Threads: Needlepoint Inc. Silks (2 over 2)


The last picture is the frame I'm thinking of ordering from American Frame. I love how you can go on their site and upload a picture to see how it looks with the different moldings. I also like how inexpensive it is. I'm thinking of ordering a few. I'd love to get started on my sampler wall! Now, I guess I should be good and get back to one of my many wips. Write soon! :)

  12. OMG, I can't believe how quickly you stitched that up!! When I first saw that design I was a little creeped out by the bird wearing clothing, but since seeing yours, it has kind of grown on me. Great job!
