Tablecloth handembroidery. My mother began in early -90th couldn´t finish got sedge, Had an operation but they only made one eye and she could never sew again. Past away in 1999. Found this cloth at my fathers home this eastern. And now it is finished. I don´t make handembroidery. Pleased with the result and it means a lot to me

Such a lovely way to honor your mother - finishing a project where she left it for you to carry on for her. It's beautiful.

You are so lucky to have this memento of your mother! You can't tell that two different people worked on this piece. I hope you put it somewhere where you can see it every day.

This is quite lovely and such a treasure. Good for you on finishing something her hands touched and help create. If you don't do hand embroidery, maybe her hands were guiding yours. Beautiful. :-}

I can appreciate your attention and devotion to this completion of an article started by your dear Mother. Yesterday would have been my Mother's 96th birthdary (she passed away at 73 with cancer), and I have many reminders currently in use of her handiwork. Be blessed, Antipatch. Greetings from Patricia in South Africa.
