Two large vintage cushion covers, hand embroidered on a close weave buff coloured linen.
A Dutch girl in a tulip field with a little bird above her on a tree branch.
Love her floaty pinny and red clogs....
The cover measures 18ins across by 22ins length.
I'm calling this the "Cinderella" cushion cover.....the dashing Prince in his uniform and the young lady blushingly accepting his bouquet of flowers. They are standing on a rose covered floor in a grand house complete with chandelier and potted fern.
Not quite Mr Darcy, but still romantic in a chocolate box way...
The cover measures 20ins across by 22ins length.
( I popped a feather cushion pad into the Dutch girl cover to give you an idea of how much better they look with a bit of stuffing )
The Dutch girl cover is £12 .... P & P £2 ( UK )
SOLD
The Cinderella cover is £15......P &P £2 ( UK )
SOLD
Of course, they would also make lovely framed pictures if you didn't want to keep them as cushions.
Measuring 69ins across by 17ins deep.
A full cottage garden border with trellis edging.
Roses and..... I'm not sure......any ideas?
The linen table runner is £15..... P&P £2 ( UK )
SOLD

Love the Cinderella one - quite unusual - haven't seen one like that before. The runner's lovely too. I'm sure they'll sell quickly :) Gorgeous day here, though I've still got a sore throat :( - looking forward to getting away next week! Have a lovely weekend. Abby X
ReplyDeleteJulie, as ever, such pretty things! I wonder if the blue flowers on the table runner are clematis...? Have a great weekend, Jill
ReplyDeleteThe flowers on the table runner are so beautifully done, I am not surprised it has sold. The cushions are pretty too... I don't think you will have them for long either! Abby x
ReplyDeleteToo late - I would have loved the cushion covers!
ReplyDeleteLove them all. I have had pieces with hollyhocks embroidered on them and the stitching detail used was the same - very effective.
