Vintage refers to the vintage Workbasket patterns that I share each week. <br /><br />Your crewel piece is really coming along. I love all the different stitches you're using... especially the laid couch work! <br /><br />Thanks so much for linking up to last week's Stitchery Link Party and for the wonderful link back encouraging others to come join the fun!
