Needlepoint On Display as Art

The Pennsylvania Convention Center is displaying several needlepoint designs by Orna Willis along with other local artists in Philadelphia.

I can't find where the display is located but if you are in Philly during the holidays, perhaps the Convention Center staff can help you.

Framing Needlework with Glass? David's Take UPDATED

We are lucky over at Facebook's Needlepoint Nation that David works at the Great Frame Up.  He wrote an interesting article about whether to frame needlework with glass or not at the company blog.

UPDATE:  The conservationist at Winterthur always uses glass.  You can hear her entire interview at the Fiber Talk podcast here.

Thanks for your professional insight, David!
