The picture frame I also bought at the charity auction has now found a picture - a cross stitch thing called 'The Sorceress' by Dimensions
- and a home. I stitched the picture in secret and presented it framed in the new frame, to Limpit today for a late birthday present (I am ashamed to say I was too involved in the TV to finish it on Wednesday in time for her actual birthday). The frame is an ornate old gold thing with scrolls and curlicues, with tiny silver and blue mirror tiles (about 1/4 inch square) around it. It's hanging on her bedroom wall now, below the fire screen my grandmother embroidered.

So that's something de-cluttered from my sewing bag... just in time to make room for the other projects I have in the pipeline...
