Here's a picture of Ida Mae Crow all framed. I did it myself. Found a black square frame at Michael's for $10.00, learned how to pin and lace it...thanks to my stitching friends Lynn and Carolyn, and now she is sitting on the countertop in my kitchen! She makes me smile everytime I see her! YAY for Ida Mae!
Edit: I learned to pin the linen first to the foam board and after lacing it, I took the pins out.
Another Edit: My brother saw Ida and sent an email to me that he had a cow named Ida Mae that he sent to the Belgian Circus long ago...LOL!
