 This is my 2"x 3" embroidery for the upcoming miniature show at IN A FRAME in June.  It's based on a photograph and pattern overlay using Adobe. I keep meaning to paint it one of these years, ahem!

Awwww...little cutie-patootie, kissing her owner.

Looks kind of part Siamese, huh? Probably too delicate for my household but pretty just the same.

BTW, lovely embroidery. So perfect!
I've been trying to do a little (rewinding the tape back a LONG way!) I'm discovering I need a better light source for my aging eyes...any suggestions? Thanks.

thanks Giggly, Treena :)

I usually sit by the window OR at night have a strong lamp light directed on my embroidery along with the ceiling light.

I have heard some mention" mighty bright vusion" lamps but don't know anyone who has actually used it.
