Darning-mending sampler

Possibly early 1900 - Germany

  

I am always fascinated by bottles, coloured glass ... Especially primitives! Today, the colourful world of the fragile beauties; snapshots from various locations and occassions :)

 

    

This will have to be in Turkish cause we live in a country where some natural rights are confiscated by law! One of them is access to Youtube !!! But thanks to some genius, there is a way to break this nonsense and I shall be addressing it to my Turkish audience :)

Bildiğiniz gibi, Youtube'a girmek bir ızdırap olmaya devam ediyor. Daha önceden kullanılan DNS ayarlarını da bloke etmeyi başardılar. Ktunnel gibi proxy linkler de çok randımanlı değil. Dün biraz araştırdım, Firefox tarayıcı ile basit bir-iki işlem sonucu, tekrar rahatlıkla girebiliyorum. Sizlere de önermek istedim ... Bağlantı için BURAYI tıklayın ... Umarım bunu da kitlemezler :) Kolay gelsin!

          

Today's goodie is a lovely chart, again from my collection. Of German origin and dates back to early 1900. Please click on picture for higher resolution.

Going through my files, I found the picture of a very simple darning that I had improvised last year in March. My very first little "darling darning" sampler :)

It was the time that my interest had just flourished and I was quite desperate not to have enough source then. Now, I see that I have accumulated enough to be able to compose my own darning star ...

By the way, I have finished the recent darning project last night but shall release the picture once I have the charting/instructions ready.
