I made this to cover the back of the sofa I don't know how you call it. The design I used are all from emblibrary with christmasy motif. Thank you for looking and inspiring me to continue embroidering.

5461966027Great work! I love your fabric choices. I have a quilting book that just has "sofa backs" so you can decorate the sofa for the entire year! Or, just put on the bed to dress things up a little.

Went and looked up the word for this type of cover: "Antimacassar" The link didn't work so I will copy and paste the first few lines. An antimacassar /ˌæntɪməˈkæsər/ is a small cloth placed over the backs or arms of chairs, or the head or cushions of a sofa, to prevent soiling of the permanent fabric.[1] The name also refers to the cloth flap on a sailor's blouse, used to keep macassar oil off the uniform.

Beautiful. We'd call it a "throw" in the South U.S., as if we'd just casually thrown it there instead of working on it for hours first!

thank you for the compliment as well as the information you gave me. It's nice to learn something everyday.
