Today I went to pick up Sakura. Luckily, Karry Davis Mader of Davis Hardware is a great resource for framing needlepoint here in Houston.
Davis Hardware has been going strong in The Heights since 1956 – the family-owned-and-operated business no longer sells hardware, converting years ago to a full-time art and frame shop.
Karry was busy helping other stitchers when I arrived.
Here is a close-up of the combination she selected to best enhance the flowery heart.
The stitchers below are Susan Wynn and Marsha Krezel with Karry in the middle.
I am so pleased with Sakura. It has the shadow box feel that I was hoping for. If you would like to read more about Sakura go to the 9/25/12 post. It is catalogue F3703 at dreamhouseventures.com.
Karry & Joan
As always, happy stitching! Joan
