I think stitching new squares is great, as you say, how many tea towels do you need.

I was wondering what to do with the drawerful of table cloths embroidered by my mother as I don't want to throw them away.<br />As for that piece of embroidery with colours too vivid for your taste, how about dying it. If it's not too big you could try dying it with tea, or coffee. In her book "Crazy quilt handbook" Judith Baker Montano has a section on dying lace and ribbons to give them an antique colouring.Marlyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13395982229464502358noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6312158.post-89230144670461909332014-05-12T06:42:44.976-07:002014-05-12T06:42:44.976-07:00That is a beautiful quilt.

I want to head out right now and begin collecting embroidered pieces. Your idea of embroidering your own is an excellent idea, too.
