Click image to enlarge.
A bold and bright nautical scene depicting a fleet of sail boats skimming across the ocean waves. The swells of varied blue and white bring this scene to light and really capture the spontaneous nature of the sea. The mild colors of the sky set off the dazzling yellow of the cutter sails as though caught in full sunlight. Though the needlepoint is primarily gros point, many finer details, including the rigging, the mast, and the main body of each boat, are stitched with petit point.The needlepoint canvas is completed with a framed twilight blue rope design, a perfect finish to the maritime theme. This needlepoint pillow meausres 20" x 12" and is filled with a combination of down and feather.
