It's beautiful and timeless. I have one made from the same pattern. It was an early Thimbleberries pattern that you had to make cardboard templates. Money was tight so I just used a percale sheet as the background. Learned never to do that again. Had to tie the thing as I couldn't get a needle through the tight thread count. Nevertheless, I pull it out every year and put it across an antique chair. It's fun to look back at projects and methods used. Kind of makes you wonder how some of us stuck with it so many years!
