Show and Tell Monday


I'm a little early -- this being Sunday -- but I did want to post this embroidered pillowcase I just finished. Of course I have to do "Hers" now. When that one is finished I add it to my website. These His and Hers pillowcases are all hand embroidered by me and have several different stitches.

    So neat...these were often given as wedding gifts in the 1930s and 1940s..

    That is so pretty and so nostalgic. I remember my Mom and Dad had a similar set.
