I just love the vintage tea towels..I have a set in my Kitchen for desplay only, that my mother did when she was first married to my dad....so around 1941-1943. I love them they are days of the week kittens doing a womans daily chorses. So when I found these I just fell in love with the sweet little bluebirds. I have not done the entire set yet, but plan too, for myself. Selfish isn't it....Oh well... Unfortunatly once again I don't remember where I found the designs, I will give it some thought and hopefully add it later. Peggy

So much like the ones my grandmother taught me to cross stitch on when I was a little girl. Og course that was in 1946 or 47. *4U

Peggy, very nice set - don't you push your back - get them done - then they all will know how special you are, too. Hehehe! Keep up the good work - bit by bit - it all comes together. *4U

It is, but keep in mind I may not get mine done now until after Christmas as I am starting my Christmas marathon sewing...well, if daughter #3 will stop giving me additional projects to do ASAP!

Thank you! I don't know what the vintage animals had to do with housework, but that seemed to be the whole tea towel theme back then. I love them.

I love the vintage patterns too, and when I do mine, they will be mine. (pattern maybe from sewweird?)
