« Upstairs - 1 | Main | Cot quilt finished »
The next section includes what is left of a sleeve. I would have liked to see the whole thing. This is part of a traditional Serbian costume from the early 1900s. The fabric is handwoven cotton with about 10 threads to a cm. It is worked in Cross stitch and double running stitch. It looks a lot more complicated than that.
The edge design in double running is interesting.
These molas are also interesting.
I really liked this couching.
Some of the elements in this design look so modern.

Some of those patterns are positively dizzying!
