I just didn't leave a comment but did see it. I can't believe how this must look in person, all those tiny stitches. Now I do not have that kind of patience and you must sit to do it which I don't like. You were so fortunate to be able to see this exhibit.

The woman sitting there and embroidering is engaged in holy work. She is caught up in silence and Presence. <br /><br />I'm so relieved to learn that the breast cancer is a thing of the past for you. And thank you for this reminder. I do get the mammogram but I need to do the Pap smear in November and I'd forgotten about doing it every two years.

I have embroidered some, but I think I would be curled up in a ball, sucking my thumb to do something like that. And that little task is on the to-do list. I have never had a problem, but come from a family history of lumps and bumps, so putting it off is not an option. <br /><br />CatCathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16085463730809297977noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3271959060195052715.post-64323956248601547572012-10-23T15:10:51.065-07:002012-10-23T15:10:51.065-07:00You brightened my day.
