“Needlepoint:
the delicious art of filling in holes with wool.”
Carole Berman
and Jennifer Lazarus
I started this needlepoint eyeglass case project
whilst on a cruise and am picking it up again to hopefully finish soon. The front is
almost done and then I can work on the back. I like to balance creative activities like this between knitting projects.

The needlepoint
canvas is from the Elizabeth Turner Collection. The canvas, stitch
book, and the needed yarns were
purchased from Cabbage Row Shoppe during a trip to
Charleston, SC. I always visit this shop when we’re in Charleston.

My embroidery
scissors were purchased directly from Maison Sajou in Versailles, France. Along with the
scissors, I got a little scissors case which included a chart for stitching my
monogram.

All of my projects
are organized in a bag specific to each project which makes it easier for me to
grab and take to either the living room or on a trip. This particular bag (seen in top edge of first photo) is a
pouch with two zippered pockets.
