I finally had some time to start practising making fabric wrapped mats using some material scraps that I had from my sewing days. I did a few 8x10 mats, and was fairly pleased with my first attempts. One mat, in particular, I thought would look nice with an old black & white photo of my Mom and Dad taken in 1961. I decided to frame it up to give to my twin sister for her birthday. Here is how it turned out:

Many thanks to Baer and Frank (of Frank's Fabrics) for answering all my fabric wrapping questions so quickly. I'm sure I'll have more once I try embossed mats and liners. :D
