Fisherman Needlepoint Canvas - Whittled Seafolk Series

This adorable series of whittled sea folk needlepoint canvases has arrived! This series came about thanks to a custom needlepoint request. One of my clients wanted a needlepoint canvas of a funny wooden sailor captain she and her friend found at an antique store and adored. When I posted the custom canvas, people loved him! These wooden figurines were popular among folk artists and hobby whittlers, and everyone knows someone's grandma who has one. Now they're here in needlepoint form! I did a lot of research on this genre of whittled folk art, and sailors of all shapes and sizes were represented. Pirates, captains, fish mongers, and more were whittled into shape, often by sailors themselves. Perfect for standups, the design is 7.5" tall by approx. 2.5" wide on 18 mesh.  The threads for the fisherman i would recommend:  Essentials  2 cards mango 575 1 each of the rest  Nectarine 568 Black 501 White 502 Hydienda 541 Patio 539 Silt 537 Lady slipper 533 First mate 650 Captain 651 Pigeon 50
