Old Needlepoint Bookmark with Three Cats bobbin timer Loop at top of frame

Loop at top of frame for hanging

This little vase is just big enough for a few stems (a couple of sprigs of red berries would be perfect in it right now)

and orange next to their toes and tails

giving this bucolic landscape a bit of an edge and amplifying the sense of nature as a vastly more powerful force than our little rowing boater at left or the tiny flying ducks at bottom right

The perfect soft green to set off the trio, best I think the big orange face at center, with very expressive black whiskers! There was once wide green ribbon sewn across the backside, much of which has deteriorated, but a new backing could easily be sewn on if desired. Very charming.
