Sarah Elizabeth Brooke by The Scarlett House Framed Finish


My husband just finished framing and matting my Sarah Elizabeth Brooke sampler.  He built me this beautiful frame out of Peruvian Rosewood and did all of the routing.  He also cut this mat and framed this for me.  I just can't be happier with the end result of my sampler.  I swear he could make even the worst thing look beautiful with his framing.  Jerry loves working with exotic woods and this one is one I fell in love with at Houston Hardwoods.     Thank all of your for all of your nice comments on my sampler.  I love The Scarlett House's samplers and I am now working on Hannah Tingey which is the newest one that Tanya came out with.  I am so loving it!!!  The bottom photo is a closeup of the wood that Jerry used.

Aw, such beautiful framing for such a beautiful finish! Congratulations! So your DH knows how to frame as well as how to make frames, huh? What a treasure he is! (I'm sure he's a treasure in more ways than that too!)

I want to point out my affection for your generosity supporting all those that really need help on the matter. Your special dedication to passing the solution all through appears to be extraordinarily invaluable and has in most cases helped folks just like me to attain their pursuits. Your personal interesting advice signifies a lot a person like me and even more to my mates. Best wishes; from all of us.

Its like you read my mind! You seem to know so much about this, like you wrote the book in it or something. I think that you can do with some pics to drive the message home a bit, but instead of that, this is magnificent blog. A great read. I'll definitely be back.
