They don't mention you can stitch these yourself for less money and a higher quality, not to mention getting precisely what you want.  But once again we discover we needlepointers are trendy as all get out.

Here's a bit more about Tucker Blair's goods.

The BIG List of Online Textile Collections

Thanks to Mary Corbet, I have discovered "The BIG List of Online Textile Collections," which is simply a page of links to online museum collections of textiles which include handwork.   This list is maintained by Yvette Stanton or Vetty Creations, so if you know of an online resource that isn't listed, please let her know.

There's a lot of information here.  I plan to bookmark this and explore the sources looking for needlepoint as I have time.  I hope many of you will join me.
