    I would place the piece in a large embroidery hoop with decorative trim around the wood of the hoop. I would put a label on the back identifying yourself, the date and that this was the first completed one. Or, I would make it the center block in an heirloom quilt. It is beautiful.

    I love white on whites. I had done one with a twist - I had picked up a full size crewel work bedspread at a tag sale for $20 and I filled in the blank spaces with free motion designs. It came out really well (there is a picture somewhere....) - I think the best part about this is that you did it on a Brother, NOT a longarm - which means that you don't need expensive equipment to do such a great piece. With some practice we can all do it! Great job!
