    I framed it myself. Got the frame at Garden Ridge.

    Yes, the quilt is against the glass. The Lori Smith instructions that came with the pattern was VERY explicit that she was aware that this was not the preferred way of framing, although it IS the way she frames hers as well. What would be preferable would be to have a mat so that the quilt was suspended slightly off of the glass.

    Beautiful mini quilt. I love the way you quilted it and then framed it. Great job.

    That's a great idea! The mini quilt is a perfect match for the frame.
