Here's Friday's Vintage Find.
This doily is one of my personal favorites.
I purchased it from an Etsy seller from Australia.
I'll share her link at the end of the post.
Just look at the detail of the embroidery for this bird.
I wish I had snatched a picture of the back.
The stitcher's stitches are gorgeous even on the back! Well done.
The embroidery was done on a linen background and crocheted edging added.
On the other side of the doily, the stitcher embroidered dainty fuchsia flowers.
"Yes, Sassy, I love you more than the linens. . . . . . . . . . . . . "
(Pardon the interruption.)
Detail of the Fuchsia.
Here you can see the back of the needlework . . . almost as pretty as the front.

VERY VERY pretty, the flowers look like popping up. Your works are so detail. Sassy's so sweet. Love the bright color of daffodils. Have a nice weekend.
