Beauty in unexpected places

Before we reached the Allenby Bridge border crossing we stopped briefly at a roadhouse.  It had the usual souvenir emporium attached, but amongst the ‘same old, same old’, I spotted this lovely piece of embroidery (on a cushion-cover, I think).  I have no idea whether it’s hand or machine made, but the beading, embroidery and goldwork did it for me.IMG_8143

So did you buy it?

Sadly, no! I took the photos instead. Is that OK? It reminded me of Mariya Waters' prizewinning quilt - don't you think?
