Petit Point Needlework: Artist Reception
Linda Gillespie has been creating pieces in petit point for decades, a delicate version of needlepoint using finer linen, needles, and thread. A teacher and school counselor, originally from Illinois, Linda had plenty of time during the long, cold midwest winters to perfect her needlepoint skills.
Ladybug Art Center will display more than a dozen of her meticulously executed art pieces, many of which depict historical buildings, including Heritage Park in San Diego. Linda has created special bookmarks just for this exhibit, and her colorful “glass tile & what-not” mosaics plaques will also be on display for the month.
Linda will be demonstrating her art form and will be happy to answer questions. Light refreshments will be served. It is rare opportunity to chat with a master of an art form practiced by noble women and queens of ages pass.
