Touring Elsa Williams' Home in California

Labels: , ,
Pamela was able to tour Elsa Williams' home in California at the 2010 EGA Seminar.  She was took photos and shared them recently on her blog.  

Elsa Williams' needlepoint, crewel and embroidery kits are still available on eBay and Etsy.  I've occasionally seen skeins of her tapestry wool, too.
