Late, but still Thankful

I finished this up at the end of last week...only a few weeks late.  This is "Thankful Notes" by Shepherd's Bush, stitched on 32-ct. lugana over-2 with one thread.  I made a few substitutions and/or used DMC alternates, simply because I couldn't justify buying flosses when so little was used.  I did buy the required JABCo button pack, though.

The frame was a consignment store find (the same place I found the Cricket Collection piece I rescued!).  It needed a bit of love/repair, but it is solid wood, and I thought the corner decorations suited this piece nicely.  I'm going to take it to my local frame shop and see if they can make it work with glass - the rabbet is rather deep, so hopefully it can accommodate glass and enough matting to keep the buttons from touching the glass.

Since finishing this, I've put in a few lengths of thread on my "Silent Sky" sampler, and started a little Santa piece I found in an old magazine.  I hope you all are stitching busily, too!
