This too shall pass #1


This too shall pass 1 by ~audreydc1983 on deviantART

A beautiful cross-stitch from a Scandinavian pattern.
This is done on 14 aida, and the pattern itself measures 4"w x 3 1/2"h.
I was thinking of mounting this, framing it, and sending it to my grandmother, because this is her favorite bible saying (it is mine as well). I worked hard on this, and I seemed to work harder when I decided to send it to my grandma. The thing is...this is an awfully small piece, and I was tempted to make it a small pillow or the top of a decorative box.
Ideas, anyone?

UPDATE: Okay, I mounted, framed, and sent this in the mail to my paternal grandmother...and she absolutely LOVED it! She said that she'll show it off to her friends at the church...she is so proud! (And I am VERY happy!)
