Nostalgia blooms and grows in
these designs! They're inspired by
grandmother's hand-embroidered tea
towels and bed linens. Drawn and
digitized in a vintage style, these
designs are light and open. They are
wonderful on smooth fabrics, like
quilter's cotton, tea towels, and
pillowcases. January's basket is
filled with edelweiss and snowdrops,
while February's basket blooms with
loving roses. |

machine. These baskets showcase

Floral Cameos
|
In Victorian times, great
meaning was given to flowers. They
were almost like a secret language,
and there was much custom and
etiquette involved in choosing the
right flower for a special occasion.
Flowers were used on everything -
jewelry, clothing, china, calling
cards - and the type of flower used
sent a significant message. Red
roses meant love, respect, and
beauty, and that meaning still
lingers in the blooms today. This
design features a rose in an
elegant, ornate frame. |
|
|
|
Available in three sizes: 6.88" x 8.78" and 5.85" x 7.46" and 4.85" x 6.20" |
Floriography, or "flower
language," was a way to express
thoughts and feelings that couldn't
be spoken aloud. Forget-me-nots
given to a lady were a promise from a
suitor. They symbolized true love,
as well as memories. |

arrive in New South Wales.
Maria requested Sunbonnet Sue and
