Original Crewel embroidery from the 1960's

Way back in late 1960 I had one child and was expecting another. It was winter and we had no TV or much to do. For whatever reason, I decided to teach myself crewel embroidery.

What was I thinking?

Anyway, I worked at it and after much trial and error decided to embroider a pillow case. Here is the result!

I actually had forgotten about it until one of my daughters found it in the attic back home and sent it to me. WOW! What a lot of work! Never again! Does show what a person can do when they put their mind to it though!
