framed needlepoint artwork inspired by the American flag, with a creative twist. Instead of traditional stars and stripes, the design incorporates crabs as symbols.
Artwork Details:
The piece mimics the layout of the U.S. flag, with a navy blue canton (upper left corner) filled with white crab silhouettes, replacing the standard stars.
The field that would typically contain red and white stripes is instead filled with rows of red crabs on a beige background.
The needlepoint stitches create a textured, handcrafted look, emphasizing the folk-art style.
The design is enclosed within a simple white frame with a red inner border, complementing the patriotic color scheme.
Symbolism:
The use of crabs in place of stars and stripes may symbolize coastal heritage, maritime culture, or a specific regional identity, such as Maryland, the Chesapeake Bay, or New England.
The red, white, and blue color scheme maintains a strong patriotic theme, making it a unique, playful tribute to American cult
