This artwork would be darling hanging in the bedroom or shared bathroom of at least two sisters. It would also be a sweet gift from one sister--whether child or adult--to another. The needlepoint lovingly reads:
Having a sister
is like having a
best friend around
for your whole life
Though I don't know the age of this artwork, the frame appears to be newer but made to look vintage. The frame is painted mossy green with a darker green edge but there is paint missing here and there and the edges are additionally distressed. The finish is matte. The construction and weight of the frame lead me to believe it's a more recent construction. It has a hanger attached to the back so that the artwork is ready to display out of the box. I'm unable to tell if the "glass" inisde the frame is actually glass or if it's perspex. I wanted to dismantle the frame to get a closer look at the artwork but it would mean popping the corners off the back so I'll leave it alone. The stitching on the fabric is charmingly rudimentary, as though a child did it but this was possibly an intentional design choice. The needlepoint is on fabric--likely a cotton tea towel or muslin--and there is a sweet applique of branches with berries or buds and leaves attached beneath the stitched passage. It looks like it's yarn that was glued to the fabric.
This artwork could remain in a family for decades, being passed down from one generation to the next! It's dear!
