Vintage Appliqué Tablecloth and Napkins 

Vintage Appliqué Tablecloth and Napkins

I found this in my mother's linen cupboard.  This bridge tablecloth and 4 napkins are all hand sewn appliqué and embroidery.  I don't remember it ever being on the table and I imagine the work is hers.  The picture really doesn't do it justice.  There are 16 squares of wheat/buff linen that make up the tablecloth all stitched by hand in a contrasting dark brown and the crazy flowers and open leaves are all stitched by hand too.  It's a quirky piece!!!  There are no holes, but there are some stains from being in storage for a long, long time.  A nice gentle washing should get rid of them.  Since this is a bridge tablecloth and small, try layering it over a plain blue tablecloth for a really cute look.  Tablecloth measures 33"x33-1/2" and there are 4 napkins that measure 8"x8".  $22.00 CDN.
