Beautiful needlework, Kay!
Thank you all! It's what keeps me sane.
Kay, you are very talented! I love it.
I hope you all can see this gallery. It's from the EGA website, but I believe the public can view it:

The blue waves piece is gorgeous I love it! What is it has a finished piece?Quote:

Love the exhibit especially the Japanese cherry blossom and the conifer glade.
It's at the framers right now. It's just "a picture." I'm donating it as a silent auction item for a local non-profit. Hoping someone will like it for their beach cabin or beachy-decorated home.Quote:

Kay, They have such energy!
Would you like a little foliage with your dessert?
I don't know who the artist is, but this is lovely (though maybe not as appetizing as it otherwise would be...)

Is that all edible, Jane?
I think so. A friend sent several pictures, all different, of cakes with grass, mushrooms, etc.Quote:

Check out this amazing young artist who creates exquisite mosaics out of paper.

Wow, Razz! That's amazing. To get the expressions and facial details like that I would think takes incredible talent. I can just imagine what a portrait I tried would look like! LOL!!
I just watched this wonderful "tour" from Australia of a collection of chatelaines and forgotten needlework tools. It's very interesting to hear the history of their use and how they changed according to the fashion of the times. The host of the YouTube show is a guy--he likened chatelaines to Swiss Army knives, so maybe even the guys here would find it interesting.

Nice!!!
I should note that's not my work. The artist is Elisa Relvas.
Fine needlework!
Time to excavate this thread again!
For your viewing pleasure I submit the following.
Designed and painted by EGA member Judy Jeroy, over the next five years thousands of members of the EGA (Embroiderers Guild of America) worked to fill every inch of the five panels with needlework illustrating the incredible diversity of life in America. The tapestry, an impressionistic piece, uses nature’s flora and fauna against the country’s landscape. The tapestry is on display at our Headquarters in Louisville, Kentucky.

It's really "clickable." Scroll down through the regions and click on the insets. I was so pleased that my area is represented by a red-winged blackbird!
