Elsa Williams' Home in California 2010
In September 2010, while in San Francisco for the EGA National Seminar, I was able to participate in a special tour of the home of Elsa Williams. It was a private home, not open to the public. I'm not sure if I remember correctly, but I think it was her daughter who hosted us that day. I had several of her books and she was very well known, a celebrity of the stitch world, so I was very excited about being able to see her wonderful home and gorgeous needlework.

Nice house! Amazing variety and amount of needlework.
I had and may still have some of Elsa Williams' needlepoint books. She had wonderful patterns. I think my mom bought some canvases by her in the long ago. What a fabulous house and it must have been so much fun to visit. Just seeing the body of work there is really spectacular!
Wow! What a place to visit!
You took a great tour.
There are embroidery everywhere in the house.
It's a place where everyone can feel her wonderful work.
The house and the garden are gorgeous.
