                                                    NEEDLEPOINT

               Needlepoint is a form of counted thread embroidery in which yarn is stitched
               through a stiff open weave canvas. Most needlepoint designs completely cover
               the canvas.

               Although needlepoint may be worked in a variety of stitches, many
               needlepoint designs use only a simple tent stitch and rely upon color changes
               in the yarn to construct the pattern.

               The degree of detail in needlepoint depends on the thread count of the
               underlying mesh fabric. Needlepoint worked on fine canvas is known as petit
               point. Due to the inherent stiffness of needlepoint, common uses include
               eyeglass cases, holiday ornaments, pillows, purses, upholstery, and wall
               hangings

               Picture entry must be framed and include a hook or wire for hanging.
