100% Wool Needlepoint Monet Art Pansies Square Pillow Cushion Cover

Needlepoint in the United Kingdom is often referred to as “tapestry” or “canvaswork”, that is, stitched by needlepoint on stiff open grid canvas mesh. When worked on fine weave canvas, it is also known as “Petitpoint”. All needlepoint designs we offer are hand crafted with only a basic and simple “tent stitch”, and rely on colour changes in the wool yarn to construct the pattern. Our regular decorative needlepoint pillows have 132 stitches per square inch. Our Petit Point pillows have an incredible 576 stitches per square inch for even greater detail. Several of our pillows are a mix stitch of regular grosse point Needlepoint and Petit Point stitch. They are indeed a beautiful expression of hand artistry and timeless beauty. Inspired by our design and superb craftsmanship of this needlepoint design, we were commissioned by a national gallery for an art exhibit of Claude Monet’s paintings. We are pleased to offer for sale decades later. Limited quantities in both pillow cushion covers and accessory. Made of 100% Wool yarn. Yarn dyed for colour fast. Velveteen cotton backing: Cream.
