Tapisseries de la Bûcherie
This needlepoint shop on Rue du Haut-Pavé has more than 1,700 French designs and more than 400 exclusive colors of wool. It was founded in 1990 by Dominique Siegler-Lathrop who has written a book on the technique of needlepoint. The French art of stitching on canvas is many centuries old and Mrs. Siegler-Lathrop is an advocate of passing this tradition to future generations.
Holly carries her needlepoint work, always with a project in process. We popped in to look at the yarns and kits featuring hand-dyed wool from Aubusson, France. I snapped this nativity scene in the window.
