Antique needlepoint cushion cover front

A-GOOD-ANTIQUE-NEEDLE-POINT-CUSHION-COVER-FRONT-19th-CENTURY-CIRCA-1850-WOOL-112009018656

Woolwork embroidery, square piece intended for a cushion cover. Donors estimate is around 1850. Original colors have faded. The background colors on the original are red, dark red, blueish green. The chart is done in red and dark red only, because the blueish green looked horrible when applied to the chart. Probably the original shade was different from that on the DMC palette.

Den Haan & Wagenmakers (publ.)

Beaded bag No. 1

Den Haan & Wagenmakers, Edam

Pattern for a knitted bag with beading, also suitable for cross-stitch. A parrot sitting on a fence looking down at a dog. The top of the bag has a floral border which can be used independently. The bottom of the bag is a floral design with three red flowers, and blue leaves on a lighter blue background. The middle pattern has an error; the pillar behind the dogs tail does not run all the way to the bottom. Also, the mountain in the background is cut off rather abruptly. Probably this is an adaption of a larger pattern, that has been cropped to suit the dimensions of the bag.

Small cardboard card, part of an incomplete collection. On one side a pattern chart with an alphabet in dark red, a large floral motif in bright red and a small motif in dark blue. On the other side Wise Proverbs. The first says that if you walk barefeet, you won't feel bothered by lack of shoes when you see someone else lacking both feet. Second says that if you are happy with the entire world but most happy with yourself, that is the best fate that could befall you and I wish it for you and myself. The third says that for a possession to make you happy, you have to have won it yourself, and that for joy is to be felt fully, first your suffering has to be defeated.
