Off-handedly Beautiful Old Hand-stitched Homespun Fabric Rag Ball Pin Cushion folk art trivet A very sweet little bear

A very sweet little bear he is

with writing  executed in pen and ink

structurally super sound and sturdy

and then the standing girl in profile looking very much like a queen with crown atop her curly hair and big dangling earrings

Off-handedly Beautiful Old Hand-stitched Homespun Fabric Rag Ball Pin Cushion folk art trivet A very sweet little bearPurchased from a favorite PA based dealer, I don't believe this pin cushion ball aspired to be anything especially lovely but I find it very much so. Just a scrap of homespun fabric expediently stitched in a few spots to secure it. But the shape of the ball and the folds and wrinkles in the plaid and the placement of the stitches all manage to be just right. Strangely super satisfying. 2 d x 1 3 4 t and in great condition.
