The Shenandoah Valley Tapestry plus John Water's Needlepoint Pillow

The local paper just profiled the Shenandoah Valley Tapestry which has just been finished.  It's actually an embroidery on heavy linen. not a woven tapestry or needlepoint.

There are a lot of closeups on the tapestry's Facebook page.

Speaking of art, Doug Kreinik went to the John Waters exhibit at the Baltimore Museum of Art and came away with this photo of a needlepoint pillow.  LOL

I am embarrassed to say this is the first I've heard of this project, and I live in the Shenandoah Valley!
