Sales have started to pick up pace for Xmas. Every year, I resolve to be ready in good time for the buying season with lots of stock laundered and photographed...and every year is just as the last - me rushing around trying to cram 36 hours into 24!
This year hand embroidery is very popular - more so I think than it has been for a long time.
By the same hand - expert needlework skills!
And Crinoline Ladies (or Southern Belles as they are called in the States) remain as popular as ever.
I have also bought this week a collection of hand embroidery tablecloths and napkins with a European flavour. Danish Hebedo embroidery, English whitework, Italian Reticella and Cyprus Lefkara work.
Each corner and border motif has a different design infill
This one has the English Rose, Scottish Thistle and the Irish Shamrock in the design
Ideal for the Xmas table or as gifts - now can I get them laundered, ironed and ready for selling in time?

This is a tablecloth currently selling and was bought along with others from a house in Northumberland.
