50th Anniversary of US Moon Landing Commemorative Cross Stitch Samplers
The summer day of July 19, 1969 brought with it a unique event in human history. One and a half billion people who had access to television watched in awe as American astronauts safely landed on the surface of Earth’s moon and walked upon it in their space suits! A scientist commentator at the time exclaimed that humans landing on the moon was analogous to amphibians leaving their watery habitat to spend time venturing on dry land.
To commemorate this extraordinary achievement, CyberFibres stitched a set of counted cross stitch samplers for grandchildren, Peter (9) and Anna (6), who live in England. As children with dual British/American citizenship, they have a dual legacy of historical, cultural, and scientific accomplishments to inspire them, as they learn and grow.
