Companions

Custom needlepoint can span generations...the Jim stocking was painted for his grandmother long ago at least by my recollection.....it was a gift to treasure and use in his lifetime.....now so many years later Jim, is to be married and again his grandmother asked me to design a companion stocking for his new wife...how wonderful....it almost makes me feel like a part of the family...and just think.... one day if Grandma and I are still around ...I might be asked to paint a stocking for Jim and Marianne's first child...who knows.....needlepoint is really meant to span generations...
