Your latest start on Amy Mitton's Winders' Keepers looks so lovely. I checked out all three versions and I agree with you on the order of their loveliness. I can't wait to see this one coming along. I am sure it will be an enjoyable stitch. I would never be able to put it together.<br />The frame for Ann Sandles is absolutely perfect. It sets the piece off beautifully. We don't seem to get these large frames here, but they suit the samplers so well.<br />I just love the black bracelets around Mia's ankles - she is so cute.<br />Happy stitching,<br />MaryMaryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11061101110272161234noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3789554235806283705.post-39497505577748479282012-02-10T12:24:31.649-08:002012-02-10T12:24:31.649-08:00Your framed sampler is gorgeous.
