Mothers Day gift for my Mum - Riolis Lilac Evening

Edited by oldwoman at 2016-5-9 09:46



I knew Mum liked this design, so when I saw it on a half price special I snatched it up.




I did my usual fabric swap. I used a lovely light evenweave in 30ct cream instead of the 14ct aida that came with the kit.











With this project not only did I frame the work myself, but I also made the frame. So next some pics of my chaotic process.















I even managed to get the back to be very neat, a first for me. Usually I have it covered with duct tape. I discovered spray adhesive, its my new favourite thing.



Detail of the gold strips I made.



Completed, with the glass in place. Im so proud of it, to see it in person it is beautiful.
And the best part is that Mum loves it!
