In her ongoing series of unusual ways to finish and display needlepoint, Carolyn Hedge Baird looks at needlepoint mirrors.

I did a wonderful little canvas that read
"Mirror Mirror on the Wall
I'm My Mother After All"
for the ANG Auction one year. It was beautifully framed in a gold frame with a similar pattern as the Scotch stitches I used, and was a colorful and happy piece. I just wish I had a photo of the finished item to show you. It opened my eyes to the magic a good framer and a mirror can add to your stitching.
