Quilting Heidi Posted October 27, 2010 Report Share Posted October 27, 2010 Originally posted by Kay Anderson Decided to mat and frame the Koi. Working on a thrift store find for that. (Starving artist and all that jazz). Thanks for the kind words. Any more guesses on what the "Beauty at Rest" peice is about??? Aren't you even curious??? Here's a hint, solar powered. Now that should get your gears turning. LOL Curious yes but I have no clue! I'm sure it wil be just awesome though! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kay Anderson Posted October 27, 2010 Author Report Share Posted October 27, 2010 Ok, here is my $5 thrift store frame and mat, cleaned up and the mat painted (it was torn and looked pretty shabby). I like it, what do you all think? Good enough? <a href=" title="DSC_0036 by Kamama710, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm2.static.flickr.com/1416/5120816120_aaf9e21270.jpg" width="415" height="500" alt="DSC_0036" /></a> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
