vintage embroidery chart series

 latest scan  for your enjoyment. the legend says it is the embellishment for a ladies purse or bag. i can see it in silk with a tassel dangling from the bottom, very art nouveau! the motif can be used isolated or grouped in any way you fancy. the scan is half of the chart so you can resize to your taste.

another vintage embrodery chart

i found this chart very interesting. although  i think it's a lace pattern it can be embroidered in a contemporary fashion with pleasing results. it can also be interpreted in many  other ways, so have fun.

i decided  to get  a file service so that  i can also share weaving files in the near future and leave flickr for just storing images.

the chart can be downloaded in small med. and large files  here

please comment  if you like the option of having a separate download place.

collar girls

go tututututurutu. sorry could not resist the easy pun:):) regardless of the silly  fun the photos are charming picturing the little girls all curls and galoshes wearing pretty pinafores. the collar,  made in cotton batiste, is presumably  detachable.

here's the chart, half collar, but it's symmetrical.you can go to my flickr and download the actual size.i changed my flickr permission so that the charts could be downloadable. now i have to work on my scanning skills.

enjoy!

ouvrages de dames-chart1

here we go, the first chart is a pretty design of art nouveau roses.

i'm including the gravure of the project as it is a  very charming  rendition of a purse with its accessories namely a glass case and coin purse. coincidentally when i visited hvitträsk i took photos of cushions embroidered with a similar motif. you can tell it was the way roses were rendered then. click on the embroidery chart and you can see it full  size. 

btw, do you like my signature? :)have to tweak it a bit and make the background transparent.
