Went on a small vacation over spring break, and (among other things) went to some antique shops. After some wandering around, I was drawn to the bookshelves in the back of this very large shop, which were somewhat unfortunately comprised of encyclopedias.

However!

Just in front of the bookshelves, was a stack of paintings that I absentmindedly glanced through, and happened to come across a picture that I found absolutely gorgeous.

Sooo I bought it.

It's all needlework, and still a little dusty / in need of a new frame, but I absolutely adore it.

Will try to post a few more details from the trip, but thought I'd share this little but now. :)
