Only for joy

Imagine what marvellous needleworks many women have made! Lack of time, lack of light, lack of appreciation – and still they made so fine textiles. Here is a small cloth with flowers in soft colours. The back is just as fine as the front.

Cloth in linen with satin-stitches and stem-stitches. From 1920.
