I love the detail in this painting. There is something very funny about the dog and the cat and the toy and the expression on the woman's face.

I couldn't find a colour version but like you it made me smile. She seems so over-dressed to be doing such work though I rather liked embroidery (and knitting) when I was young and sick in bed for a period. I found it relaxing.

I've never been into sewing or knitting much, but now it appeals to me, although I have not yet got round to it.
