Not too many of us are going to be covering a frame with pearls, amethysts and gold embroidery the way Larissa Borodich did, but some of the same techniques (such as trapunto) are used in needlepoint, so I thought you'd love to see the Russian icon Mary Corbet posted about today.

It is a gorgeous piece and there are many ideas we might be able to use on our own work. Thanks, Mary and Larissa!
