Ask The eBay Queen

#1 bought this needlepoint for mother’s day for me. It is a Kirk and Bradley canvas, and when I received it I was pleasantry surprised at how BRIGHT this canvas was. I had settled on a ribbon for the brightest pink, and ran out. I looked everywhere for the same dye lot and color. No luck.

After a little searching I did find a good replacement.

The Finished product:

I did the white and black in wool, the purple centers in velvet. It’s hard to tell but the back in the center is sparkly. I’m going to have this finished as a pillow.

Here’s what I am working on now:

This is an Elizabeth Turner Queen Bee canvas. It is supposed to be finished into a mirror. But I made the center Initials.

I have issues. If you’ve read my blog for very long, you know I have a few issues. If you are a relative or a close personal friend, this blog will not surprise you.

I love to needlepoint. It calms me… it makes me happy… and well it gives me something to do when I’m not doing anything. #1 was looking for a new tapestry needle for me when she found my partial stash of finished needlepoints. She got on me a little because I haven’t “finished” them in the way that most people would consider them finished. They haven’t been made into a pillow or framed etc..
