Crewelwork Hanging
1930s

Clearly from a screen. Very nice quality embroidery worked in about twenty-five good colours. Would look good as a hanging, with edges turned under and with velcro sewn to the top back for hanging. Talk to me about this. Or be good to reproduce as a kit. The slightly darker background shade is the correct colour. 


Cataloguing

38 x 18 in / 97 x 46cm. 


Condition

There is a small mark to top, right of centre 1 cm radius. Bottom right is a mark approx 5 x 3 cm.
