Rare Sidney Counted Bargello Star Ruby Needlepoint Pillow Kit

 

 

As a classic film fan, I've always been interested in the day to day details of film stars. When I found out that some of my favorite film and broadway actors and actresses enjoyed needlework, I was in heaven! I Finally Found the connection. ( Can't sing, can't act, but I can stitch! ) Needle-ess to say, I've been a collector ever since that time. The thing I love about Sylvia Sidney's needlepoint designs is the look of complex stitches that is invariably created with a few simple stitches put together. This Star Ruby pillow is among my favorites. You'll work wool yarns on a blank 10/20 penelope mesh in Scotch Stitch, and Encroaching Gobelin stitches  to create this fascinating geometric piece for the needlepoint enthusiast.  Also comes with the authentic  Syliva Sidney Original Custom Label which you may personalize.
