The Perfect Frame

When we frame our needlepoint, the struggle to find the perfect frame can be as epic (and frustrating) as climbing Mount Everest. Luckily Lisa Krause has taken this step out of stitching Ewe and Eye canvases.  The frame you see here matches the canvas perfectly.  Tisha promises to showcase more of the designs with their frames on her website.  Check the New Products section at the second link below.

These aren't the only frames to match canvases available. Maggie has some frames available (also from Lisa Krause) as does Labors of Love.

These frames are expensive but they are the perfect compliment to your stitched piece and remove a lot of the pain involved in choosing a frame that works with your design.
