Seasonal Smalls

LOTS OF PICTURES!!

I tried to fill my antique dough bowl for July 4th, but still needed a few more to really fill in the spaces!   I'll work hard to fill it for next year! The bowl is rather large! It seems larger than most of the ones I see online.   As I mentioned in an earlier post (here), it was made for my grandparents for their wedding in 1896 by my grandfather's brother.  It was well used for bread and biscuits for their large family of 8 children!  My aunt had it and gave it to me a few years ago.



Some of these were stitched a while ago, and others more recently.  The backing fabric is shown as well.  I had all of the fabrics, buttons, etc. in my stash, so I didn't have to spend any $ to finish them!  Woo Hoo!
