Dog on a cushion

1849 No. 1 Bijzondere uitgave van het tijdschrift Aglaja; uitgevoerd door Sajou te Parijs

Aglaia

King Charles spaniel sitting on a red cushion with two golden yellow tassels. The image is probably inspired by another pattern that was based on a painting by Landseer that depicted pets of Queen Victoria. The dog lying on a small footstool is Dash, a dog that she got while still a princess. The other pattern isolated Dash on the footstool without showing the other pets. Cue an avalanche of spaniel embroidery patterns, most on a cushion, but without the blue ribbon and bows that were shown on the painting.

Handmade Rugs

Compiled for the Woman's Home Companion

Woman's Home Companion, 250 Park Avenu, New York City.

Small stapled booklet, 24 pages not including covers. Handmade Rugs, Crocheted, knitted, braided, hooked and embroidered. As the introduction says, making modern reproductions whch, while quite as lovely as the old rugs, have been simplified in design and workmanship to fit the needs of the needlewoman of today. There's a Halloween witch rug pattern and one that clearly is from before WW2 which would not be suitable to make and display in modern times. For the footstool covers smaller Berlin woolwork floral patterns can be used instead of the patterns offered for sale here, which will no longer be available.

SMALL-EARLY-19TH-CENTURY-VERSE-SAMPLER-BY-MARY-ANN-FLEET-AGED-9-c-1820-1830-381342476545

Fragment of a text sampler. It originally had a border around three sides that has been removed. What remains are three stanzas from a song exhorting young ladies not to rely on their good looks. The song is number 118 shown in a book from 1785, The Humming Bird, available in archive.org, https://archive.org/details/hummingbirdacol00birdgoog/page/n316/mode/2up The sampler text uses an f instead of the long s. The printed text shows the letters are very slightly different.
