Starry Starry Needlepoint

This is not your Grandmother's needlepoint! This is your cool aunt from Mendocino's needlepoint. I didn't crop the flats of water out of this photo so that one could get an idea of the size of this lovely thing. It's big. It celebrates diversity. It celebrates the way the sky looks at night. It celebrates the 70s, on your wall, without saying word or making any loud celebration noises.
My husband found this in a wonderful old 70s infused home, complete with avocado green countertops and crusty, flattened shag carpet. Him and I have been living with it and loving it tenderly for a while, but we realize we can never give it what it deserves, which is wall space. Lots of wall space. We'd like to find it a nice home, with or without shag carpet.
