Up for auction is a hand crafted, completed and finished needlepoint stocking. The picture is an adorable grouping of three kittens. At the top is reads the name "CAITLIN". The only way to remove this name would be to remove all the stitches across the top and re-do it with a different name.It has red piping and red felt backing. It is totally lined with a white linen fabric.
Included is a picture of a kit for this stocking and here is the information:

The was a model to a needpoint kit which would have been on display in a store to show the prospective buyers how the item will look when finished.
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)."
