LGBTQ+ Pride Flowers Needlepoint Pillow Canvas

No jokes here. This one is pretty. Each flower pictured has historical significance to the LGBTQ community:

• Green Carnations: Popularized by Oscar Wilde and his circle in the 1890s, the green carnation became a discreet symbol associated with gay men and queer identity.
• Pansies: “Pansy” became a slang term for gay men in the early 20th century, especially during the queer nightlife boom known as the Pansy Craze of the 1920s–30s.
• Violets: Violets have long been linked to love between women, beginning with the poetry of Sappho and resurfacing as a lesbian symbol in the early 20th century.
• Lavender: Lavender became strongly associated with LGBTQ+ identity through phrases like the “Lavender Scare” and was later reclaimed in queer activism, including groups such as the Lavender Menace.
• Roses: a universal sign of love, desire, and beauty

This large 13 mesh design will make the perfect pillow with its floral design. The background is white, so you can choose what color you'd like to stitch it (I'm doing black so the flowers pop).
