Trish Burr just posted a photo on her blog of a large piece she did over the last year for her own pleasure. It's a masterpiece of needle painting. She did it as a personal challenge to stretch her skills. For me it's a reminder of how we all, no matter how talented, need to polish what we stitch by doing things a bit out of our comfort zone.

By the way, BeStitched is having a Patt and Lee trunk show (twenty percent off). If you are a cat person, you can pick up some great cat canvases at a discount.
