Does anyone here do Needle Point? And is that one word or two?
Anyway I was cleaning a picture I made YEARS ago and got to thinking about how much I used to like doing it. I posted a picture, after I got the dust off.

Wow! such a pretty picture, Nancy Jo. I don't do needle point myself, but my Mom does. She did the most beautiful pillow for my sister of a yellow rose. It looked really hard to do.
Such lovely talent you have, my friend!!

That is beautiful! I have never tried it, but after looking at your lovely work, I am inspired!

I haven't done needlepoint for years and years and then some more. I think I always had sore fingers afterwards.
Are you going to pick it up again? MB

Beautiful picture! I've never done needlepoint, but always loved the look of it.

Blessings, Brenda

It's beautiful piece, I tried needlepoint once but just couldn't 'get it'. I do lots of counted cross stitch though, :0)

It is just not suited to my crippled old hands , needlepoint I mean. i love your house picture, it is a lovely one. I admire the results, but I just work wit things that don't require such precise work. I',m thinking Richard is going to have to build you a studio pretty soon....You are just going to have to drink more coffee! And eat more cookies to balance out the coffee. I swear, you are such a busy bee.
