I was inspired to do this little picture last year. It is done on 32 count polysilk over one, using 2 threads to give it the dimentional look.
The polysilk is clearish, so I had to be careful not to have any threads show through.
The finished size of the center design is only 2 1/2 inches.

It's beautiful. Where did you find the pattern?
Laura Doyle is the designer. This design was included in one of those plastic-like trivets. I purchased mine at the craft store, but I've seen them in the stitchery magazines. I don't see that design on her website right now, though.
Another gorgeous designer of hummingbirds (and other birds) is Crossed Wing, the designer whose large "Flower Power" I am currently working on. I've got some close ups of the hummingbirds in some of my posts a month or two ago. :)
Narita... gulp... that's is absolutely BEAUTIFUL! Wow, I know you said it had a dimensional quality to it but I had no idea... I wish I could see it up close and personal! Well, you definitely made me want to give this a try...
