I got this wonderful needle case for my birthday from DS and DDIL. They actually gave it to me while we were in the US but with the understanding that it was for my birthday (and the implication that I wasn't to open it until March) 'Course that idea didn't work...I just had to look immediately! but I have waited to share.
It has this wonderful inked scene "View from the Suspencion Bridge". Here's the bottom half of the scene with the bridge in the foreground and three sightseerers or maybe a young family...click on the picture above to enlarge it and you can even see the sailboat on the river!
and the top half.
Here you can maybe make out the title"View from the Suspension Bridge". It must have been done by a local artist who just knew the owner would know which suspension bridge!
This is how the needle case opens-with the inked design on both pieces. I've no idea how old this is...it was purchased in Massachusetts so if anyone recognizes the bridge or view, please let me know!
