Vintage Embroidery



This is one of many pieces of Vintage linens I have in my collection. This piece is one of 3 companion Doily's gifted to me from a friend. His Mother embroidered this vanity set in the 60's or 70's. These were sold in stitchery departments of fabric and general stores as pre-printed designs. The crochet edge was usually on the piece at purchase. These will come out for Spring. The colors are so vivid and clear, I think they have seen little use and certainly no sun exposure.
