We saw samplers, quilts, coverlets and wool work. I was particularly fascinated with this needlework sample book from 1932. The student had been enrolled in a needlework course in 1932 in England and had described in great detail all the techniques she was learning. There was a sample of each technique included in the book.

That little needlework book is a great find. I'm sure you enjoyed that workshop tremendously! I enjoyed just the little bit that you shared! Cyndi
