Antique Redwork Heart


Antique redwork has been a love of mine for years.  Redwork was a popular needle craft art in the 1870's.  Six inch muslin squares marked with simple designs were sold as Penny Squares in general stores. 



Simple, romantic and so fun to stitch.  
And one perfect white rose... just because.
