Beautiful job. I love the width of the white on the double mat. That extra little bit makes such a difference.
Thanks so much! 😊
I love the process that goes into picking out what looks the best. I love your guests.
Thanks Pal!! 😘
That linen mat is awesome!!!
It's pretty great!
Super result! Wow! You both have a good eye. Spectacular.
Thank you so much!
Beautiful piece. It must be so satisfying to help honor these amazing handcrafted stitched items and to elevate them by the framing selection and treatment 🌱💫 simply wonderful work.
It's so absolutely satisfying. ❤
So, so beautiful!!!
Thank you Joanna!!!
It came out SO nicely! I caught myself talking to you guys while you were choosing.🤣🤣🤣🤣
Thanks my friend, I love it so much. And I love that you were chatting with us :)
Loved this video! The framed piece is incredible!! 💙
Thanks 😊 ❤
Beautiful job Paige!
Thank you! Cheers!
Just gorgeous! ❤
Thank you! 😊
Beautiful job!
Thank you so much 😀
So lovely!! I would be interested to see how you mount the piece inside the frame. Wonderful job!
Thanks Cheryl!
It’s beautiful! I love the framing. I’m not a big fan of matting, I’m more primitive and I don’t use glass or matting. Do you do any kind of that type of framing? My pieces are not going to be heirloom pieces, I just do them because I enjoy it. I would love to see somebody do an unboxing after hearing about how you ship these treasures! I’m glad I found your videos through Rachel and Sue, aren’t they fun!!!! 😆
Hi Sheila! I do all and any types of framing. I love primitive styles too :) I would love to see someone unbox a piece to lol
Hi Paige, a big ‘hello’ from New Zealand! A quick question re your equipment ( from a novice but enthusiastic textile hobby framer), does the Fletcher Multi Material Cutter not cut the inside of the mat? I noticed that you use both the multi cutter a mat cutter? Thanks for your content, so cool, no one else shows this!
Hi Grace, thanks for being here! The multicutter doesn't cut the inside. It's a work horse for sizing and squaring though. It's one of my favorite pieces of equipment. Happy framing to you!
I am knitting a Hap shawl and am thinking of having it framed so it is suspended in a glass shadow box is that possible?
It's definitely possible, though not recommended. The two sheets of glass would crush the fibers, ruining all your hard work. Would be better sewn to a mat or fabric board. Let me know if you need help framing it or help finding a framer near you.
Some pricing
Pricing is individual to each piece.
