More of my aunt's work. My sloppy photos don't do them justice, and some closeups would have helped. They are stump work embroideries, and the detail is lovely, and helps to make them very lifelike. One day, I'll try one myself.
That work is so lovely..your aunt is very talented...i always promise myself one day i will do things and i seem to leave those things and they are always on the bottom of the list at the end of every day...so i guess we haveto put them on the top one day soon....
Esmerelda lived with us for a couple of months, then one night she ripped through a window screen, and disappeared into the night, never to be seen again.
My cousin found Puss as a kitten, stuck in the wall cavity of her shed at Gunns Plains. She convinced me to keep her. She wasn't an affectionate cat when she came here, but became more so as time went on.
"Thousands - millions and billions - of animals are killed for food. That is very sad. We human beings can live without meat, especially in our modern world. We have a great variety of vegetables and other supplementary food, so we have the capacity and responsibility to save billions of lives." - His Holiness the 14th Dalai Lama.
