Victor, it's called smocking, and usually used on little girls dresses. It's intricate and time consuming, also quite hard on the eyes, which it's why I no longer do it.

Yes I agree with Karl, that the pink thread is perhaps too well focussed. However this is a very eye catching picture and I like it a lot.

Gayle, I like the composition, and I think this is another one of the more on topic pictures, but from the focus, it appears that the scissors and thread are the subject, when I think it would look better with the work in focus, and the scissors and co blurred in the background, as the props they are meant to be?
