Dillmont's Encyclopedia of Needlework is a treasure I inherited from my grandmother in 1989. I never knew that there were so many aspects to needlework. I finally discovered that I was really good at something. This was my introduction into whole new world. Until then reading was my only hobby. Last year, I happened upon Split Ring Tatting. I realised even if I learn about needlework to my dying day, there would still be a lot of things I'd never even heard about.
Here is motif 13. This mat looked plain. So I have embellished it with a feather stitch border and beads. The motif is from a needlework magazine "Needle And Thread" published by Coats India. This is the only Needlework magazine in India.
