If you can't make the discussion, Kevin's original needlepoint is on display at the library but I'm not sure for how long.

Woolworks Needlepoint NYC

When we think about needlepoint in New York City, we think Manhattan with Annie's Needlepoint and Rita's Needlepoint.  But there is another little shop in Manhattan, one that has been around a while—Woolworks Needlepoint.  The shop specializes in traditional needlepoint in wool but...

…the shop also does custom designs.

I stumbled across this profile in the online version of New York Magazine.  It looks well worth a visit, particularly if you happen to be close to the Met.  Call before you drop in.  The shop appears to be on the second floor.

Madison Avenue Needlepoint

Thanks to Betsy's sharp eyes and quick camera, I discovered that Hermes's window display for May featured needlepoint.
