(Long time follower of your special blog here...you really inspire me to be a more feminine and godly homemaker! Only wish I could take some sewing lessons from you...) :-)
I have to admit to being a teeny bit envious of the inexhaustible supply of embroidered cloth your thrift shops yield. What industry there was in the past. I think you are right to leave some of it under glass. My favourite cushion has perished with use.
That's genius! I have a tray that has an embroidered insert which I found in a shop once and I really love it but, I've never thought of using framed embroidery as a tray. How fun!
It's lovely as a tray - why not? As long as the glass is strong enough. And, that GLH cookbook site looks right up your alley, Anna! I think you should choose a book and do it.
So pretty! Anna you always have an eye for photography!
I wanted to let you know that I was very inspired when you made this dress. http://pleasantviewschoolhouse.blogspot.com/2009/10/brown-linen-shirtwaist-butterick-5315.html
