First custom framed piece!
I recently had this piece for a friend's retirement custom framed and couldn't be happier with it!
It's 13.5x13.5 inches (framed 18x18) and is 1 over 1 on 22-count Aida (my eyes hate me).
The pattern is a bit weird: there is a talented linocut print-maker on Etsy (ArtByTamsin) who's work I wanted to convert to a pattern. I spoke to her and received her permission to use her work to generate a pattern. I had to buy the physical print to receive a PDF of her work, which I was more than happy with! I used FlossCross to turn her PDF into a pattern and went from there!
Photo 1: Framed and ready to go!
2: Finished but not framed, hand for scale and Q snap pieces to keep it flat lol
3: About midway through
4: Close up (while in the frame, sorry for the slight glare!)
This thing took me almost 3 years of off- and on- work and I am going to have a hard time giving it away!
