Barbara Eyre is well known for her charming, detailed, whimsical hand painted Christmas stockings. I've only worked on 18 mesh for decades, also known as petti-point. 18 mesh allow the stitcher to implement such detail, not always available in 13 mesh.
I selected this one and another one I've listed because I imagined my grandsons looking at their stocking and creating their own story, using their imagination each holiday as they grow up. I've always enjoyed the process of selecting the threads, cotton or wool, as well as the interior and exterior fabrics for finishing by professionals. This listing is for canvas only. This is an heirloom to be passed down generation after generation. My grown daughters cherish the needlepoint stockings I made for them as children and tell their children their own stories about their stocking each Christmas.They cherish them so much, they do not pack them away with all the Christmas trimmings each year, but place them in their dresser for safekeeping. Hopefully your children or grandchildren will enjoy this special hand painted Barbara Eyre needlepoint stocking for generations, too.
