Handmade Felt Christmas Stocking SANTA'S LIST Tree "BETH" - JCA New

Description

Up for auction a charming hand crafted  fun felt Christmas Stocking. It features Santa Clauss looking at this toy list. In the background is a tree decked out with garland. In the front there is a sack of toys.  This is considered colorart wherein the scene is printed onto fabric and in this case it is done on felt and then embellished with sequine. At the top is has the name "Beth" which can be easily removed and changed. The back is done in red felt and the front and back are attached with stitching.
the size is 11 1/2 x 19 1/2. On the back there is a label indicating that this was the sales model.
This is from the JCA Needle Treasures Collection as are all the stocking I am selling. Have not found this particular one anywhere on the internet and since the company is no longer manufacturing them, finding this in the future is pretty slim.
This  was a hand crafted model to a  kit which would have been on display in a store to show the prospective buyers how the item will look when finished. It has a label indicating it was done in the Azores.
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)."
