Much to good and interesting to waste. I shall package them up nicely and take them to my summer shows, but I'm not sure there will be much interest.
Very nice vintage embroidery projects. I was wondering why they were never finished....
ReplyDeleteOh, Bargellos are fun to do! Very 70's
ReplyDeleteOh, I too could contribute to your summer sales!!!!!:)))
ReplyDeleteI've done bargello similar to that - and I wouldn't be a bit surprised that it will enjoy a resurgence before too long. The threads in the final project make my heart go pitty pat...silk.....oooooh.
ReplyDeleteI am sure they will find some new good homes soon
ReplyDeleteI'm sure you will have no problems finding new homes for them. I sell a lot of Unfinished needlework on eBay and it is always very popular. I love the colours of those silk threads.♥
ReplyDeleteThey look lovely, I'm sure someone will want to finish them! :) x
ReplyDeletethese are so precious!! You never know, somebody may want them. I'm clean now too!! phew!
ReplyDeleteWow! what an amazing shop you have. I will come back for a long,wonderful browse. Gilly
ReplyDeleteI run into all kinds of UFO's when I am out making my thrift shop runs. Sometimes I pick them up with intent to finish them myself or simply for the amazing threads left behind.
