Our Embroidered Photos

 A good day was had by all.  We worked on two photos, one for practice to see if the stitches worked, and then the actual photo.  The first shot is of a practice piece and the rest are the actual work.  Note, one of our members did collage instead of stitches.

Thanks to Kathy for a most enjoyable day.
