Hope this will inspire! This is a velvet table runner that I believe was embroidered in the 1930's. The embroidery is approximately 18 inches in length and embroidered at each end on brown velvet fabric. I rarely find or see chenille work, and the last piece I saw was in an New Orleans antique store. The 2mm stitches were embroidered with some type of "crinkle" ribbon.
Wonderful find,did you bring it home?I love all the ribbon work you show us.I know if I tried it I wouldn't love mine.Maybe though I should at least try.
