The crewel embroidery on this fabric is phenomenal. My friend Jayne found this fabric at the Alameda Flea Market. She originally planned to use it to recover a chair but is now thinking of making it into a quilt/throw. I wish the photos had turned out better, the don’t do justice to the color or the detail of the work.
