Winter Color

You know how finishing really changes the look of a piece?  Even the same design worked by the same stitch guide will turn out differently when you turn two finishers loose on it. Exhibit No. One--what Ruth Schmuff did framing Zecca's lotus piece.  This is a perfect jolt of color for the depths of winter!

Hi Jane,

Isn't Ruth's approach wonderful. Love her colorful choice of frame. I was honored that she actually finished the Lotus Squared piece.

Thanks for mentioning her blog. I think I will do the same on the Needlepoint Study Hall blog.

Thanks, Robin
