A few details of some illustrative embroidery I've been working on for fun. The quote being stitched is in Russian, "Всяк глядит, да не всяк видит" which translates to, "Everything has beauty, but not everyone sees it." Memo to self.

Three things:

* Bella's Rules got a nice mention in the New York Times this weekend. Huzzah!

* Can I gush about Call the Midwife for a minute? What a treat. An aside, I would kill for a pair of those cigarette pants that Trixie traipses around in (sigh).

*And if you're local, may I strongly suggest you beat feet to the Pao Cafe, post haste?
