Punch Needle...House and Flag Mat on Stool
**CLICK ON IMAGE FOR ANOTHER PHOTO**...I had fun designing and punching this patriotic piece. I love the idea that our homes and country are protected by the stars and stripes flying overhead! After I punched this piece, using Valdani thread, I added three rusty stars with a strip of 100% wool. The piece is also lined on the back with the same wool fabric. The white stool is gently crackled and it measures about 10" long x 5 1/2" wide x 6" high. The punched piece is not attached to the stool so that it may be used year round! I am kindly asking 125.00, plus postage, for this original piece. I gladly accept paypal, MC/Visa or personal checks. Please email mommadonnatx@gmail.com or countrykeepers@att.net to make a purchase.
