I have a supper cloth with a similar design to this, as well as another doiley, but what caught my attention again with this centrepiece was the beautiful crocheted edge. That's not to say I am any less impressed by the detailed stitching of the Scottish piper!
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.

Some more eBay wins.
Look at this exquisite old centrepiece - what perfect work in both embroidery and crocheted edging. What a treasure!

Wow! Loads of goodies. I like the piper.
ReplyDeleteCall me crazy, but I'll bet you have a high number of feedbacks on ebay. LOL!
ReplyDeleteHi Gina, your collection is truly wonderful!!! I know I haven't been by for such a long time. My online time is very limited compared to what it used to be. I think you asked me once about the pictures I post. I bought a CD once with lots of clip art etc. which comes in handy. bye for now...
ReplyDeleteI'm just going through the last few posts ... wow, you sure have scored some beautiful pieces. I love the one with the dog on it !!
ReplyDeleteI must check out ebay again, got some stuff to sell (and buy ... teehee !!)
Take care, Meow
Incredible!
