Description
Up for sale is a completed, hand crafted and mounted Crewel Embroidery Picture by JCA Simplicity Collection. It is a lovely picture of two Canada Geese and three Baby Goslings.The embroidery is done on linen fabric which has been stretched and mounting with sizing cloth. The size is 13 x 16 and it is ready for a mat and frame. This particular model was done in the Azores. I do have a mat available that is an ivory almost the palest yellow color. It is not round as the manufacturer recommends for this embroidery. If you would like that mat to be sent with your embroidery just let me know at the time of purchase. Or you can just let me know that you do not care for that mat.
Included in this listing is a picture of the kit which is shown for reference only as this item does not come with a kit. All the kits from this company are made in the USA.

This picture was a model to a kit which would have been on display in a store to show the prospective buyers how the item will look when finished. It was covered in plastic when displayed to protect the picture and the plastic was removed to take the picture. I was able to acquire quite a few of them; some were just matted and others framed.
I learned recently that the name on many of these finished pieces identified the company as JCA Inc. with an address in Massachusettes. They evidently ceased operations and will not be making/distributing anymore needlecraft kits. These finished piece from kits are already hard to find and will only be offered occasionally perhaps on the internet. Per the JCA website:
"Due to the death of our owner, Alan S. Getz, JCA, Inc. has ceased operations indefinitely.
We would like to thank our loyal customers who have supported JCA for over 50 years.
JCA manufactures premium needlecraft products and distributes fine knitting yarns. We are an amalgamation of three companies-Paternayan Brothers (started in 1939), Elsa Williams (started in 1960) and Reynolds Yarns (also started in 1960)."
