Embroidery on Wood


Lesson 99 in the Singer Instructions for Art Embroidery and Lace Work, Sixth Edition, 1931.

I don't know why I haven't got round to trying this yet.  My husband has a shed full of wood offcuts. We could collaborate on a wooden quilt.  I could do the thread work, and he could do all the necessary sanding and planing and the hinges.
