I really like that, Mikki. And it reminds me I should be doing a better job of selling mat enhancements.
Mikki, check out some of the scales from Incra for doing crosshatching.
This is just one of many that work well with laying out French Mats.

Very nice!
Now, if you also had one of a leprechaun (spelling?) for St. Patricks day you could post that in your window and certainly generate some interest.
I'm thinking of doing something similar for some seed packages for spring. If I get around to it.

HA HA HA! This is funny! I just recently, on Chapter board page, called him "a leaky cistern of knowledge". I think your sound more flattering Mikki! It's just fun using cistern in a sentence. :smile:

Well I've never done a lined mat before and hadn't had a real desire to learn. I also had never had a customer bring it up before.
Guess what? Just had an existing customer come in with a print that she wanted framed to compliment another french lined mat. All of the advice and examples I have seen from other framers both here / FB pages and the G gives me confidence that I can do it.
Now just have to order some supplies and practice, practice, practice.

John, Hope you can make our upcoming event in Louisville, KY. You will leave with all the tips and tricks, Linda is a great teacher and she will share the "Post It" note trick with us which is GOLD!

This is awesome framing Mikki. Can you post your competition piece and outline how you did that one. I loved it at the show.
