One of the people on my Galapagos tour has one of those fancy sewing machines with computer-based embroidery, where you can convert images into designs for embroidery.

She just sent me a homemade tote bag. It has an embroidered penguin on one side and an albatross on the other, taken from her pictures. The bag is in black and white, pieced from a variety of black and white fabrics -- including fabric with a crossword design. :) (Yes, this will make an appearance at Stamfklyn!)

ETA: Photos!

This shows the albatross side.

This is so cool. What a sweet thing for her to do.
