My (Amy's) mom is excellent at needlepoint (she's even won awards for her work). It's a fine art- it's expensive and very time consuming. If you know anything about it, you know that it's a lot more than a simple basket-weave stitch. My mom needlepointed a beautiful stocking cuff for Maya. I picked it out because I loved the design, but my mom made it really "pop" with fancy stitches! You can't really tell in the photo but Santa's beard is even fuzzy!
I know that it's something she will cherish her whole life. It's also a great size so Santa can fill it with goodies!
We'll have to make sure that our next house has a fireplace to really show it off :-)
Thanks G.B.!
Glad you are happy with it. Hope maya grows up to love it. It is only one to a person!!
