Embroidery

My mother went through a stage of being fascinated by Chinese stories. She loved the names like "Little Cherry Blossom" and "Flower of Life". While reading such a book in bed with my half asleep dad, she asked "If we were Chinese, what would you call me?" to which my sleepy dad replied "Chinky".

Re: Embroidery

What lovely treasures to keep, I also love embroidery and tapestry, but very few are good enough to frame, unlike these beauties.
