<p>[QUOTE="janetathensbay, post: 425984, member: 9059"]This needlepoint 'pillow cover,' is a traditional design from the Greek island of Skyros. I have one exactly like this that was indeed purchased in the early 70's from "the National Welfare," organisation described above. I also have several larger needlepoint rugs from the island of Skyros. Here is a photo of one of my favourites..which was made in the early 70s. I have an artist friend in Greece who has painted the fish from my rug on rocks that he has collected along the beaches of Greece![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
