Vintage Textile Thursday #2



This is the edging of a single whitework pillowcase I bought from a Vintage Textile dealer.  It was $6.  Don't you just lament that someone worked so very hard on this and it ends up being sold for $6?  I love the drawn threadwork and it looks like the grey outlines were done in some kind of pen, because they have not washed out.  It's incredibly soft.  I do use all of the vintage pillowcases I own.  Some see less rotation so they stay nice.
