I love them...and so will she
I just found a stash of them at my Aunt and Uncle's house...I'm trying to clear out some things since Auntie just passed away. So, the lovely old/new pillowcases are in my house now.

Glad you ladies love the embroidery work. I love doing this by hand, and give them away and really wonder sometimes if people appreciate them still.

Those are beautiful. Reminds me of when I was much much younger and used to embroider pillowcases. Never did that pattern though.

I love these. You can order pillow cases and quilt blocks online. Jack Dempsey needle art is on of the companies that make them.

They certainly are a blast from the past. I made similar ones for before I got married in 1955. Your pillowcases are beautifully done and your MIL will love them. May in Jersey
