Isn’t everything English “proper?” This was from my trip 2 years ago when I went to London with the Needlepoint Now tour! One of the highlights was a class at the Royal School of Needlework in Hampton Court, which was on my bucket list! I would like to go back again for another class, specifically in silk shading.
This was a goldwork class that was selected for the theme of the exhibits “Peacocks and Pomegranates.” It was a great class and my seat was at the end of the table so I could look out the window at the gorgeous view! and daydream a bit too while I was stitching.
Thanks to Nancy at New Creations Picture Framing that turned this into a showstopper!
I’m absolutely in love with it and I would say it is very proper in an English sort of way!
It found its place of honor on my cat wall…I know it’s out of place, but it was the color! Mixed in with some stitching, a special cartoon that my sister had done for me when we were a 3-cat household and many snips of Mutts cartoons. A few special cards and other purr~fect cat cartoons that Nancy at the shop has a keen eye for finding for me. I give them to New Creations and the other Nancy just comes up with some fab ideas!
AlleyCat and I were chilling the other night while I was watching a little baseball!
Such a beautifully rich-looking needlework piece! Love your cat wall. One of my friends had come into my house, looked around at all my cat things, and remarked, “Boy, you sure like cats”. We all can say the same about you!
Thank you! And yes “I sure like cats!”
Love the cat wall, and the Pomegranate!! I had the opportunity to take a class at the RSN last year. Isn’t it a wonderful experience?!
Yes it was! And hope to go back!
So glad to see your project, it is beautiful. It does make me excited for my tour this fall with Needlepoint Now. Liz
Enjoy! I would love to go again, but this year it’s the south of France for me with Tony Minieri!
Vicky, it’s lovely! As the Brits say, we’ll done you 🤗
Thanks Joanne! E wants to have hers framed the same way!
