Here is a very interesting hand painted chart. It is not dated, and the only marking is a little number (213) on the top right hand corner.
It features 24 different items..... can you name them all ?
Should I chart it ? Would anyone be interested in using these small motifs ?

This next pattern is a repetitive, colourful chart. It's a hand painted French Sajou pattern from the 1st half of the 1800's.
The reproduction is available here :

I stitch a lot, and my back has been a little sore of late, so I decided
it was time to treat myself to a standing frame. I settled on an 68 cm, DMC
original. I had wanted one for years, and even had a friend make one for me once, I used it a lot but it got left behind in during our last move.
A quality stand is a good investment if you embroider a lot, a stand will last a life time but your back and eyes won't if you are not careful.
