So pretty! At first I thought it looked like embroidery, but when I enlarged it, I could see that it was a painting. It's in great condition considering its age!

Funny, this morning I was thinking of attempting to do a painting of a field of pink flowers for my kitchen...then I saw this! How beautiful. If only I could do something half as lovely.
