Oh dear, there are so many ways to finish your work, especially little ones, that I hated to hear this would be your first and last project! I love little pincushions, and often just sew them into a little pillow. They look charming in little baskets, or hanging off a hook with a little ribbon hanger. Whenever I start a few project, the first thing I decide is how it will be finished, and make it to fit a standard size frame, if framing. I also look at thrift stores for frames, as with a can of paint, they can be perfectly matched. I have even painted mat board to match. Yes, professional work is pricey, so it has to be considered when gift giving.
I have even made fabric covered frames which are just as nice. I have framed pieces without glass that are over 20 years old that only need occasional vacuuming. They look as good as new. I hope you show us the finished piece soon! |
