#23 The Lion Tamer


Spirited girl rides on the back of lion.  Original free embroidery on muslin.  Unusual handmade holiday ornament.  golden lion with red mane.  Girl is wearing a green sweater and blue pants.  Lions and girl's faces are hand drawn with dye pens

My visit to Master Embroiderer Mary Martin this weekend inspired me to get into the Holiday spirit. Mary's work is extraordinary for its precision and technique and I encourage you to visit her website for very unusual, professionally-made unique embroidery.

I can't claim Mary's level of craftsmanship but what I like in technique I make up in spirit, which is why I am dedicated this holiday to kick-ass women who know what they want.

This first ornament, the lion-tamer, just won't give up. Read her story here.

And yes, this gal is ready to keep you or someone you love company. She can grace a tree, or hang from a bedpost. Email me to put your name in the hat.

The Lion Tamer is being given to Caitlyn: "our lion tamer reminds me of my totally fearless five-year-old daughter".
