This morning I got an email from Berlin Embroidery about Tanja Berlin's latest needle painting cyberclass--the red fox. The class starts in February and lasts roughly two months. If you are interested in learning to create realistic animals with just DMC cotton floss in long and short stitches, this is the class for you.

See? Told you this was the Year of the Fox!

Recently this story has made the rounds on Facebook-
http://en.rocketnews24.com/2013/12/11/92-year-old-grandmother-creates-gorgeous-traditional-japanese-toys/#more-109043
Basically the story is "92 year old grandmother does crafts." There is so much more to the story! There is more here.

And there are many, many more wonders here.

The real story should be why more of us don't make beautiful things our whole lives?
