Something Worked!

Something Worked!
I downloaded this photo from Shutterstock to use for photo embroidery. I printed it way too small for that. Even if I used sewing thread and a fine needle to enhance the flowers, it’d just make a holey mess.

I applied it in tiny dabs with toothpicks.

It dried shiny, and almost crystalline looking. It looks great, but is very hard to photograph.
