Timeless Toile

Sunday November 23, 2003
Wander back to a place in time when mothers and grandmothers took time to make their surroundings beautiful with needlework and lovingly handmade items. Learn how to turn popular toile fabrics with embroidery stitches and easy-to-find embellishments into quilts, wall hangings, pillows, and purses... over two dozen projects. I am a button collector so I especially like the bouquet patterns in this book. The Calico Dog and Cat pillows are wonderful and combine hand embroidery with quilting techniques.
