    Description

    Vintage floral hand embroidered crewel picture that is on cardboard. It measures approx. 12"x16".
    It is NOT framed.
    It's been folded back and glued on the back side along the folded over edges. The front is not glued down.
    Each flower/word is separated by green ribbon that has been hand-stitched to the fabric.
    Beautiful embroidery work. 6 different flowers and 6 words, innocence, love, faithfulneess, thoughts of you, happiness and admiration.
    The off-white fabric is cotton. I was able to get a few strands of fabric from the back along one edge and did a burn test and it all turned to ash.
    It's a slightly coarse weave of fabric, see last picture.
