Mom's Masterpiece

Mom has enjoyed needlepoint for many years, and her latest masterpiece came back today from In Stitches, a wonderful shop specializing in needlepoint, just up the road from my home. Mom and I enjoy going there when she's visiting Portland, and she usually buys a few canvases and a selection of yarn to keep her busy when she returns home. The design of this beautiful needlepoint pillow is based on a fanciful quilt pattern. If it was a quilt, it would be a unique, whimsical one- something I'd think about collecting. But I love it best as a needlepoint pillow, just the way Mom intended. Thanks, Mom!
