I found these vintage booklets and thought they were an appropriate follow up to the embroidery.
I just can’t fathom the amount of time and patience it would take to do these!
This one is more lace than hanky! Amazing.
These are a little more my speed but I still doubt I will ever take the time.
These kinds of details are virtually a lost are these days. Time is too valuable and no one can afford to do it any more.
