August 23, 2014--Just received my Needlepoint Nation magnet from
Needle Little More.
The explanation below about the design of this pin is from their website:
Made exclusively for Needle Little More to celebrate our favorite Facebook page, you do not want to miss having this very meaningful accessory!
- The rampant charges, or animals supporting the shield, are frogs standing guard with their crossed needles, to protect you from “frogging” or having to “rip-it.”
- Heraldry shields of handworkers often had tapestry spools so everyone knew of their skills. We have updated those to a modern spool and made them red, which symbolizes patience and victory.
- The central figure is not a piece of armor, but a Facebook “like” symbol, as we hope you are always getting many “likes” on your posts and comments, and the background is blue, the color of truth and loyalty.
- At the bottom you will see the logo, “rem acu tetigisti,” which is Latin for “you have touched the point with a needle;” apropos for many in the literal sense, but it translates more figuratively into, “you hit the nail on the head,” which we hope is always true of all your advice.
Added it to my ANG chapter name tag. It looks great with my small, but growing collection of pins, charms and magnets.
