Valentine Hearts~ Embroidered Love!

One of the things I love about vintage linens, is the beautiful holiday embroidery. And this month it's hearts!  I'm not 100% sure that all these linens were used to celebrate St. Valentine's Day because they're too beautiful to bring out just once a year.  Most likely most of these were embroidered by a bride for her linen hope chest.

Here's some HEART eye candy.

If you'd like to see more photos or get more details on these linens, please feel free to visit my eBay for more information.

Easter Linens

Here's some eye candy for Easter inspired embroidery. They are the sweetest little animals that are perfect for spring and Easter. I'll post flowers and religious embroidery later. There's just too much for one post!!

The photo of the bunny and daffodil (above) are from a vintage table runner. The "Gentle as a lamb" is from an old dish towel.

 The adorable lamb and flowers are from a pillowcase. There are actually two lambs and lots of little daisies on the garland.

The pink lamb below is just too sweet. It, too, is on a pillowcase.

 The bunnies above and below are all on table runners.  So cute for Easter!

The bunny rabbit below is embroidered on a baby coverlet. This is cute enough to leave out all year.

 The mommy and baby ducks above are machine embroidered/appliqued. It's not that old, but adorable just the same on the baby flat sheet they're on.

 The chic above is part of a whole family of chickens on a tablecloth. Great for all year, especially if you like chickens ( I do!!)

There's no doubt that the little chicks and eggs above are for Easter. This is part of an elaborate hand embroidered tablecloth. This is one of those that the photos just do show how amazing it is.

(Sorry, all the items in this post are sold)

Hope you enjoyed the amazing and creative hand embroidered linens.
