Patra's Place will be mostly about my linen collection, but also about my SINS (Stuff I'll Never Stitch), UFOs (UnFinished Objects) and projects that I am currently working on. Since I created this first blog, I have diversified somewhat! You can see the list of my other blogs, and my favourite websites and blogs by other people, on the sidebar.

Embroidered baskets of flowers and other nice items.
Pam K. recently featured a basket of flowers that she had stitched from an old pattern. I offered to scan some of my collection and she said yes please! So here they are - not all of them by any means! Just the ones I could fit on my scanner. While I was sifting through my collection for baskets of flowers, I pulled out a couple of other designs that I thought would appeal to some of my regulars. Seeing I had the scanner on, I thought I may as well make use of it.
Gina, thanks for sharing all these. Such lovely stitching. Like you, I cannot understand why anybody would throw them out - I guess some people just think they are old fashioned.
ReplyDeleteGina, all I can say is wow! You have the most incredible collection I've ever seen. Thank you so much for taking the time to scan them. I know how time consuming scanning can be! Now I may have to pull out my transfers and stitch a few more!
ReplyDeleteI love them!
