School House Chalk Board

Primitive Punch Needle
School House Chalk Board

An original creation by
New England folk artist
Deborah St. Germain

Woolnsails

A distressed chalkboard holds
two antique look pieces.
A punched schoolhouse with flag
and a mini sampler.

Both pieces were hand made and designed
as this artist worked on them.
Truly unique ~ no patterns were used.

She states:
"When I made the sampler,
I imagined myself as a 7 year old,
trying to make her first stitched piece.
The name is my grandmother's,
who was an artisan in her own right".

The piece was done in the naive
style of a child,
stitches are not perfect,
and some are larger than others.

She made designs on things she
saw in her own life;
her kitty, a bird, nature and designs
she had seen her sisters do.
A piece to remind us of the simpler times
in life and the American spirit
that made this country so great.

The chalkboard has two sawtooth hangers
to hang on the wall,
or you can put it on a shelf
or in a table setting.

The chalkboard measure 12" x 8" and has a
matte finish to protect it.
The punched piece measures 4" x 3 1/2"
and the sampler is 5 1/2" x 5".
