My New Frame is Empty???

Oh, do you want these???? We have the full packet of the alphabet, and also
have a packet broken to sell by the sheet. Besides the M designs letters.
And there is a lovely set of monograms from Marjorie Massey, Le Passe'
Compose, and from Reflets de Soie. Also, we have a couple of books from
France, of all Monograms. And Dessings has some charts that are monochrome,
with a letter in the midst of different borders, etc.

Just check out the dessin's stuff on European Cross Stitch - I think they
have a bunch - we get directly from Dessin's.

little frame to stay empty, would I?

What wonderful ideas do you have for me for something great that will
fit
in
a 5 x 5?

Lucille

What kind of art do you like? Have you looked at Solaria?

Or how about an intitial?

would be stunning on a silver laced fabric . . .they say it's about 7
inches on 11 count - it would be a perfect fit with a mat on 18. .

Linda

Some of the Dessins are very nice, but neither the L or the Z are
calling to
me.

I think I would love a miniature sampler. I might even have a Drawn
Thread
chart in my stash that has two tiny samplers. I really should go and
look,
shouldn't I?

Lucille


I have some little ones from Dessin's that are freebies - I'll throw
something in with the turtles when they swim your way.

ellice

I have the turtles (actually my Mother does). Are you thinking of
something
else?

Ceryl

I think I have a little alphabet sampler in my stash from Drawn Thread and
it would be perfect for the frame. Or anything that has some interesting
stitches would be nice. Or something whimsical, or, or, or----Way too many
choices and Way too little time.

Do you like needlepoint? Here's are some pretty butterflies:

Or, there's this *really* cute design, of a Maltese (that's what Puff
is, right?)

I think if you picked one face, it would probably be about the right
size.

Good luck!

Joan

Yes, Puff is a Maltese and these are just too cute and look exactly like he
did when he was a 2 lb. puppy. They definitely are a possibility.

Now teach me--how in heck do you pay cash or to a bank in New Zealand. It
looks complicated.

Won't forget - when your package gets put together. Waiting on the charts
from Laura.

Lucille is getting the turtles - with some spectacular fabric & thread
(overdyed cotton). You have your own other squishy sitting on my DR table.
Just as you know, I always put a surprise in my friends' packages.....
