AIS: Geek Dinner Special Item

Each year for the last three years Jill Bonino has created a one of a  
kind petit point iris themed brooch for the Geek Dinner auction.

This year it is a  black and gold iris petit point pin stitched on  
40-count silk gauze with silk thread and Kreinik gold thread edging.   
This is an original design based on a photograph.  I She creates the  
stitching as she goes, so there can never be two alike.   This pin  
finding also has a hole for a chain.  An 18-inch chain is included. The  
brooch is 1 3/8" wide and 1 3/4" tall.

I am hoping to get you all excited about the Geek Dinner auction this  
year There is a picture at:
