Large vintage crewel embroidery; Noah's Ark from Paragon's order Creative Stitchery

Vintage crewel embroidery from Paragon Creative Stitchery titled "Noah's Ark," a fun and whimsical design featuring animals and their mates on a floating boat. There are birds, giraffes, spiders, deer, sheep, alligators, crabs, fish, butterflies, and octopuses all surrounding a french-knot bearded Noah and his wife. The stitching is carefully done and the background linen is nice and clean. There are a few wrinkles to the linen, mostly around the edges order of the frame. The frame is a decorative wood with gold, a paper backing, and hanging hardware. This is a fantastic crewel and large, too, measuring 24x20".
