Tray cloth c.1930s


Possibly worked from a pre-transferred design on off-white linen with pre-finished hemstitched edge.

Simple floral design worked in stem stitch  using stranded cotton, 2 strands.

Edge has then been crochet into & finished 3 rows treble scallops to resemble lace.

Book cover c.1990

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