Embroidered Childhood Memories
Book Review

by Rachel Graco, Grandma's Attic
as published in Grandma's Scrapbasket

As soon as I saw this book I knew I had to take it home! I love to embroider and this book is amazing! Authors Brenna Hopkins and Nori Koenig have compiled more than 100 full-size vintage patterns such as the Bedtime Babies of the 1920s and the coloring book alphabets of the 1930s and 40s. These nostalgic needlework patterns capture the enchantment of fairy tales, lullabies, and sweet dreams. You'll find a brief history of embroidered children's quilts and insight into this decorative art form, plus tips on tinting fabrics for adding a splash of color to your embroidery patterns.
