Description

Grateful Hearts, from Erica Michaels Needleart Designs.

Designed by Linda Stolz, © 2026.
This charming primitive landscape unfolds across a warm Gingersnap linen ground, with a row of brilliantly rendered autumn trees in burnt orange, crimson, gold, and russet providing a canopy for a pair of playful squirrels scurrying along a ground line. A delicate vine border in harvest hues frames the heartfelt sentiment below, while the coordinating cone-shaped pincushion — shown in the product photo — features a complementary floral and leaf motif, making this a richly layered autumn project. The design’s folk art sensibility and warm earthy tones evoke the feel of a treasured antique sampler, perfect for seasonal display or gifting.
