I'm super excited to show off the talent of Harp & Thistle! This type of stitchery is called punch needle embroidery, taken from an ancient technique of making hooked rugs. Erin & Cory are the husband and wife team of "Harp & Thistle." The clever name pairs symbols of their ancestries: hers, Ireland; his, Scotland. She designs and creates each item. He's behind the scenes as photographer & shipper. I am absolutely smitten with this fresh & fabulous embroidery hoop art! Here's the Harp & Thistle Etsy Shop and Facebook page.
