at the fair

period embroidered velvet curtain used as a table cover at a street fair stall. the stall traded in antique books, so it was not totally irreverent.

the stitching was a very tight chainstitch worked in a chenille yarn and as you can see in some points it looks like cut  velvet.

the velvet was green and in some parts had faded to a grayish olive  green.
the photos are not my best because they were taken with my cell phone.
