Fer "Klimt"!



Do you love deep, drenching, vivid color? How many shades of red can be fit onto a needlepoint pillow? From a purple that is almost black to the pale, pale pink of a spring sunrise.

Blue? From the light and airy shadows on the under side of puffy summer time clouds to the deep, deep blue of shadows standing out on a night of full moon magic.

Yellow? How about the shimmering light of a dewdrop on a daffodil petal to the wonderful rusty orange of a robin's breast?



I found this advertisement in the New York Times Sunday Magazine and was immediately engrossed. It brought back memories of needlepoint projects I have enjoyed, both those that were kits and those I was brave enough to design myself.

You know, Gustav Klimt is an artist whose work I have enjoyed because of it's intricacy and his color choice. These pillows are outstanding! I may have to start saving my pennies so that I can order a couple of kits.

Check them out for yourself.
