After.....with all the satin stitches added in the double-sawtooth border!
The color of the linen in this next picture is the most accurate!
I am much happier now. What a relief that I realized that I had forgotten those satin stitches before it was framed!

Wonderful finish! You rock the stitchin' world!
Such a beautiful sampler!!
Good of you to notice - it's even more beautiful now :-)
Yes, a big relief I am sure! It looks fantastic. Well worth it. :)
Beautiful piece and good catch! It looked lovely in the before shot, but the additon of the satin stitches really makes the border "pop"!
Those satin stitches really add to the piece! I'm so glad you caught that! Beautiful work!
What a beautiful finish, Cathy! Congratulations!

So glad you saw that too. I worry about that myself. It looks fantastic. Love it.
This is beautiful Cathy! I'm so glad you caught that too. The sawtooth border really sets the piece off. I do have a few things on my wall where I missed something small, but luckily I've been able to catch the big ones too. Once I almost framed a Drawn Thread piece where I hadn't given the birds any legs!
Happy Day!
Beautiful! Glad you caught those satin stitches before getting the sampler framed. As Margaret said, they add so much to the sampler.
Hope you'll email me a photo for my sampler newsletter.
Beautiful finish Cathy!
Fabulous finish ; )
Wonderful, wonderful finish, Cathy! Those satin stitches do add a lot to the overall look! I'm glad you caught it.
It is a good thing you noticed to do the satin stitches! They really "take it up a notch!!!" Speaking of satin stitches...I just learned how to do them this past weekend! Linda from Chessie & Me taught me! Isn't that cool?? She showed me the Smyrna too. Now that I know them I don't know what I was so scared of.
Your finish is gorgeous Cathy!!!!
I thought she was pretty before, but she's beautiful now!
Such a beautiful piece ~ even prettier with the satin stitches!
Hi Cathy!!! That is a beautiful piece!!! What a wonderful finish! I enjoyed meeting and talking to you at Jan's retreat--- and thank you so much for the precious pin cushions that you sent to us- they are just adorable and thoughtful. Hope all is well!
