This so rocks! Gina E. has a blog called Patra’s Peacock Collection, which is a veritable online museum of peacock needlework. The collection is especially heartwarming for me. My mother’s grandmother taught her to embroider, and her first piece was a pillowcase adorned with a beautifully colorful peacock. My mom has always said that first piece was her best piece ever because her grandmother made her rip out even the tiniest flaws. Whether or not you have your own nostalic peacock story, you’ll enjoy Gina’s peacock catalog. Go see her blog.
Many thanks to Lakshmi of Hand Embroidery from Sadalas for point out this site.
