Needlepoint | First needlepoint I designed |
When I got into needlepoint, I started designing my own. This was the first design I did of my own and it is on size 17 canvas - a bit smaller than usual, but not petit point.
Needlepoint footstool - my husband's 1932 PB Plymouth four door sedan - 3 views. Also the Flying Lady and the grille emblem. |
|  | Sampler I was using Erica Wilson's needlepoint book, and this is my interpretation of a needlepoint sampler from her book. (another footstool) |
| Needlepoint picture from a kit |
|  | Scene from a Kit This was a scene done from a kit that I gave to my mother-in-law for Christmas. I've just sold it on eBay for $10.00 |
| Crewel design Needlepoint chairback |
|  | Another Sampler This is another sampler type needlepoint - this one is a chair back and I did a crewel type design and used various different stitches to get the different textures. |
|  | Blackwork I did this picture in black and gold thread from a kit. It was called blackwork. |
| Crewel embroidery from a pillow kit |
|  | Embroidery Pillow from a kit which I gave to someone (don't remember who now) as a gift. |
|  | Crewel Another pillow I did from a kit. Crewel embroidery was done with wool thread. |
|  | Swedish Linen embroidery A Good Housekeeping pillow embroidery kit which gave it to my cousin for Christmas |
