Housework, which never ends, was once a big part of every American woman's routine. It's not surprising that it showed up as a major theme in the "Art Needlework" done by women from the 1920s through the 1950s. Vintage Home includes a fabulous collection of heirloom linens featuring decorative embroidery, such as quilts, pillows, potholders, kitchen towels, laundry bags, and more. Valuable historical information, charming designs, and clever sayings fill every page of this valuable book. We'll never go back to doing housework like this again, but we can remember the charm of history in our crafting. Read Less
