I’ve learned that Vallerie Needlepoint Gallery now owns the Amanda Lawford line of canvases. I didn’t see any tree top angel canvases, but you can contact them directly.

Here is the back of the angel with her gold trim done. It used an unlabeled wooden spool of Kreinik from my stash and another new spool. I had 2 new spools, and one was a perfect match. The other seemed just a tad less gold. Overall, though, Kreinik seems like a very consistent product over the years.

Her back is all done.

I delivered her to the delighted owner, Linda in Media, earlier today. She got emotional because she started this over 40 years ago! It’s a shame the sparkle in the wings and trim doesn’t photograph well.

Thanks to Needlepoint Nation, I found a store experienced in finishing tree top angels and let Linda know about them.

Next time I post, it’ll be finished and on top of her tree. She promised to send me a photo.
