This yellow picture frame (4 and 3/4″ x 3 and 3/4″) has been in a drawer for years, along with 3 more. I’m glad I remembered them and could find them. It’s a Happeez product from Mayfair Lane. The back has a large sticky surface (after you remove the protective liner) that adheres to refrigerators, mirrors, glass, and more that apparently can be revived if needed.

These last 4 stitches complete the last 2 badges from Ellen Johnson’s Summer Stitch Camp. I knew these stitches wouldn’t be great for coasters, thus the frame. I just cut the canvas larger than the opening (no finishing edge) and layed it on top of the removable insert (intended to hold a photo). It slipped in easily, and I nudged it into place. It should stay put. I used Planet Earth Silk (Lettuce V052, a lovely variegated thread), DMC Perle #8, and Impressions.
