My Grandmother stitched this table cloth and matching napkins when she was a young lady. I was the very lucky recipent when I married. My table isn't big enough to show it to its full beauty.
A closer up of the centre piece.
This is stitched in each corner.
Thi
s is stitched in middle of each side section and again on each napkin. Grandma has also crocheted the border around every piece as well.
GO GRANDMA and thank you. Not only for this beautiful tablecloth and napkins but also for helping foster my love of stitching.

Thanks so much for visiting my blog and your sweet comments about Fred's backside.
Oh Lindy, this is sooooo beautiful! You are very fortunate, and I'm glad to hear you treasure it. Hate to think of these ending up at opshops (unless I find them, then it's a good thing, lol)
