During that same time period, my great grandmother was doing the kind of handwork. One of the things left is the needlepoint chair seats she made for my grandmother's dining room chairs. I have them, but eventually on the edges they wore through...and the lovely black yarn faded to a greenish black. I hadn't the heart to get rid of them so I covered right over them iwth uphosltry fabric. I know they are still there when I sit down! You got some lovely pieces and price was right!Bookiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12043111213031211794noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8084627553585504389.post-11772502590156346742014-09-13T09:52:45.518-07:002014-09-13T09:52:45.518-07:00I agree.

I had come by your blog on your anniversary post, written out a comment, and must have failed to hit the publish button. When I came back to see if you'd posted a new post, you hadn't yet. I was GOING to leave a 2nd comment on the "old" post.....but got befuddled because I couldn't find my 1st one.....got distracted and didn't leave ANY.
