Sally would like me to show off my magnificent wood work skills here.
Tho I think she may get more praise for her long stitch work .

Ya got that one right Matt!
It is surprising how many items are made for the non woodworking partner's hobbies, such as knitting needle boxes, frames of all descriptions, display stands, pottery benches, sewing boxes etc. etc...
Workmanship varies according to the end use, and how many brownie points one needs to earn.:D
The tapestry should be a stunner when finished, then you will have to make a proper frame!
Happy hobbies,
Alan...

Sally is most impressed with the comments
She's very grateful.
If you want me to describe the methods materials choice and my joint cutting with regard the excellent frame just sing out[emoji3]

Sally is right ,fully pleased with her effort .
It looks fantastic .
We are now discussing what sort of frame to put it in.
I suggest a mid ,16 century Italian inspired one http://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20160628/d76bfe7502763e46fbf5b124e1310836.jpg
Like that ,but computer said no .
I also requested $10,000 budget for equipment to make new frame .
Computer said no .
So I think discussions will be going for a little bit longer .
Also ,I have very little creative time at present .
Cheers Matt
