The little men on the bridge could be like Willow pattern perhaps. I noticed a date of 1968 on one sheet but some of those would be earlier than that I think.

I can imagine stitching each one. My favorite is the bird - 2nd favorite are the fish with bubbles. Did you notice on the apron that there is no tie for the top portion/bib? Maybe she pins it. So if I were starting a project it would be - kitchen towels or an apron - like she is wearing (with straps or a tie around the neck.) Hmmm...maybe I will start a new project and make that apron with embroidered pockets and bib. My babysitter taught me to embroider when I was in kindergarten. I still love it 53 years later.

I have had one since been a small child and although slightly thread bare now, every time I have a cold it gets a few drops of olbus oil and normally ends up my sleeve! crafty lil mousehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00698923101125871261noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1842721577085503845.post-44309484298973679002018-02-01T00:56:00.581+00:002018-02-01T00:56:00.581+00:00What a good friend Lindsey is to gift you with suc...What a good friend Lindsey is to gift you with such a special gift. It was the first sewing I learned. I think my grandmother taught me as soon as I was able to hold a needle and sit still for a bit. We used to sew after church together. Such good memories! I still like adding hand stitching to my sewing project, even though I have a machine that will do it for me. Something very peaceful about it. The only problem I’m having at the moment is getting my needle threaded, UGH. Looking for a needle threader tonight. Thanks so much for sharing your wonderful gift your friend gave you.
