A XS "warm fuzzy"

Some friends came over this past weekend for a cook-out. I happened to
have my floor stand out in the livingroom with the latest WIP clamped to
it. My friend, Karen, beckoned to her husband, flipped the project over
showing him the back and the front, and said something to the effect of,
"That's true skill, when the back looks just like the front." We've had
the neat backs debate ad infinitum here on rctn, and don't need to
revisit them, but it was a warm fuzzy to me :-) Sadly, once framed, the
back will be neatly hidden by the backing paper. Sigh.

Frame it back to front to show your skill?

How about using one of those two sided frames?

That's an idea, but my friend will likely hang it on a wall anyhow. And
in any case, the back isn't really *exactly* like the front. It's just
always nice when someone looks at your work and shows appreciation for
all of the work that goes into a piece.
