Designer: Scarlet Letter
Item: SCTL-028
Type: Cross Stitch Patterns
Note from the designer - "This little needlework was likely made as a panel of a "huswif"/aka a "housewife", which was an embroidered, double-sided vertical series of pockets made to hold needleworking supplies. It could be folded up or hung from a peg for swift access to the necessities of mending clothing. In shape and design, it very much resembles the lowermost panel of an English sampler pocket made by Ann Marner, in the collection of the St. Gallen Textile Museum. On the front, where the pockets open, each was decorated with symmetrical pictorial motifs, while the backside was stitched primarily with verses."
