I used Hobby Lobby and got the framing I wanted for a Crewel embroidery of a hummingbird for my husband. They did a great job, and its has survived several moves. It looks great twenty years later. Well worth the expense for a piece we treasure. That quality of work is unbelievable. Please do consider the long term of protecting this priceless treasure. And please show the finished project. Curious minds want to know.

Wow - you have very beautiful family heirloom pieces there. The Last Supper piece is wonderful! And thank you for sharing the link explaining the background of your Indian Tribe logo. The logo itself is quite beautiful and I love how the components (feathers, acorns, etc) represent beauty & strength to your tribe. Simply beautiful!
Thanks again for sharing.
P.S. I remember sewing pillow cases with my grandmother in my youth (many decades ago!)

Edited: I should mention that I am told my great-grandmother was full Choctaw but it remains an unproven fact.

My Mother made this embroidered picture of "The Last Supper" as a housewarming gift 10 years ago.
In the second photo is a set of pillow cases my Gram hand embroidered over 25 years ago. The design is the logo of the Saginaw Chippewa tribe, to which I belong. My cousin Julius Peters designed this for our tribe in the '70's. Gram was 99 when she went on her journey.
The third photo is a close up.
