It will interesting watching the lake scene come together, with all the details being added.<br /><br />I love the way you abandoned the row formation for the FMQ and did your own thing. That's what being a Free Motion Maverick is all about!<br /><br />Love, MuvMuvhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00734374133479479218noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8230694326800494480.post-16938697509149407892014-07-05T14:18:09.424-07:002014-07-05T14:18:09.424-07:00My pleasure.

However, I am happy to share the generalities of them. I use a Shadow Box style frame that is four inches wider and taller than the work itself. I mount my work on a matt board (typically white) the same size as the frame. The work is centered on the matt and glued to foam core cut that has also been centered on the matt and is approximately half inch smaller on all sides than the work. In other words the foam core allows the work to "float" and is hidden behind the work. This method is best for small works. Frames can be cost prohibitive. Larger works can be stretched around painter's canvas.

I was looking at them closely. Was going to guess that you hand stitched many chain stitches. I think your approach went faster! :)Judy Warnerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07644738305279130498noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8230694326800494480.post-87591343722005821992014-07-04T11:16:23.363-07:002014-07-04T11:16:23.363-07:00Yes, the thread painting came out great!
