Framing your Weaving

This morning I learned one of the most important lesson - the difference a correct framed weaving makes. I had framed my piece for the Common Current Show like this:

But then I found a mark on the mat and decided to cover it up with another mat. I choose a more warm colored mat, responding to the colors in the weavings. I did a sketch in photoshop before I proceeded buying a mat. And look at the difference it makes. Now the Airport looks in place. It just makes me happy when pieces fall into place and the outcome has improved.
