Worked from an iron-on transfer (red outline remains visible) onto remnants of white linen with machine-stitched finished hems (likely by the stitcher).
Mostly stem stitch but ouline of rose petals worked in buttonhole stitch.
Design uses stranded cotton, 6 strands (creates an embossed style to the design). Yellow rose – uses 4 colours; red rose – uses 5 (thread may have been insufficient).
Size 8” width x 12.5” length (20cm x 32cm)
