Cushion cover (reversible) c.1960




Possibly worked from a transfer on beige linen.

Floral designs (both sides) worked in various straight stitches, chain & french knots & uses stranded cotton, 3 strands.

The seam to join each side has been machine stitched & an opening left for the cushion to be inserted (likely then hand finished).

Circular diameter size 16.5” (42cm)

Book cover c.1990

The background currently here is one stitched as a kit & now pending to make into a book cover.
