Indian finally finished

Post by redrose »

Hello everyone, I havent been on for a few weeks with the death of my mother, my sons wedding and a stay in hospital for me.But at last I can say "I have finished" my indian. I refused to pay $200 to have it framed so picked up a $10 frame and had a go at it myself. Pat on the back for me (I say to myself) Image

That looks fabulous!
I can't go with paying for framing either, it just seems so expensive generally.
I pick up frames in the charity shops. You can get some lovely ones really cheap. :dance:
You made a great job of doing it yourself anyhow.

So sorry to hear it hasn't been an easy time for you recently, but hope the wedding of your son brightened things for you.

Well done on the finish and the framing, I always do my own -- prices are way too high for me.

Sorry about your mother, :hug: and I hope things are OK after the hospital stay.
