Antique Ship Needlepoint
« on: July 14, 2015, 04:21:58 pm »
Hi,
I bought this small needlepoint at an estate sale.  Does anyone recognize the design.  It appears to be old and I think the threads are silk.

Thanks!
Jeanne

It looks like the Santa Maria that was one of the three ships Columbus sailed from Spain. A crude likeness. Just a guess. I can't tell the age.
