I just got Vikki Clayton's Hand Dyed Fibers newsletter and found something mentioned there for those who have been really good this year--a needlework casket. A very expensive one, but it is lovely.

Click on the link at the bottom of the above article for a lot of photos, but note that Vikki only has two of these in stock right now.
I think this box is gorgeous. It would be spectacular with all the wooden panels covered in stitching, wouldn't it? I suspect this is more suitable for counted thread stitchers than it is for NPrs, but since many of us do both types of needle arts, I had to mention it.

These are beautiful!
Aren't they? A box like this covered in embroidery is to die for!
