The Famous Needlepoint

Lilly Finch Needlepoint found this neat photograph of Julie Nixon needlepointing in the White House during her father's Presidency.

Lynette Designs says she was an avid needlepointer who collaborated with Paragon Needlecraft Company to publish her designs as kits.  I found several on eBay, all of which appear to be crewel.  The black and white photo of her stitching does seem to be on needlepoint canvas, however.
