Right on, Bruce. One rarely saw sewn ones when I lived in UK, other than
in gift shops. To be honest, though I don't remember buying them, my
mother and I always knitted them.

We'll have to embellish it then! But I have "quilted ones" and a knit one
so....

That's an absolutely typical one ! There must be ten million of that

I was part of a group that did an ECA project, a ribbon embroidery tea

tray for my younger daughter. Must look for a pic and put it up on
rctnp.
