This is a vintage bureau scarf, hand embroidered linen, circa 1950's
I marked and quilted the Sue Nickels trapunto heart wreaths in the center,
used Cindy Needham background stencils for the orange peel and fans,
and FMQ unmarked Sue Heinz inspired hearts in the corners
and along sides, and FMQ for the dense quilting and feather borders.

Some details of the quilting.
