This should be about half of the book now. I think there are a few in this group (together with some others) that would make good Day of the Week towels, but I always want to make everything into a quilt — or occasionally a pillow. These remind me of vintage embroidery transfers, although I know it’s a little weird that some of the elements in the pictures are not complete on the edges. In the original drawings, there was a black border around each picture. I’m thinking now I should have left it, but you get the idea.

More sweetness! In my opinion, the “Helping Mother” page should contain a few broken dishes. Hehe.
I am glad you got your pin and all in one piece! I was worried the backing would come off in the mail and the glue was awfully messy to work with. Thankfully anyone who notices you wearing it won’t be able to see the back! Haha. So pleased you’re happy with it, that makes it all worthwhile.
Mwah! xoxo
