outlets
I will be out of the country from Oct 24 to Nov 1st ...any items purchesed during that time will be shipped after I return...
Chinese Miao ethnic minority childs pinafore, dirty....but
hand embroidered, and appliqued decoration, indigo dyed to very dark blue/black,
monkey fist toggle hold back of neck in place...
It would be nice if it were in perfect condition but..to the contrary...it is dirty, well used but still charming
19 inches across the bottom....and 19 inches long
When framing Chinese textiles….do not allow your framer to glue the textile to any kind of backing board…
Instead have the textile basted (sewn) to a piece of complimentary background fabric…and then have that fabric glued to the board…this will insure that the embroidery can be easily and safely removed from the frame.
