This rose dresser scarf was made by my Grandma.
I think it is beautiful.
She was a skilled seamstress, and had
a dressmaking shop when my Mama was young.

I didn't ever really get to know this grandma.
But I hope when she looks down,
she sees that this lovely piece is treasured by her granddaughter.
(Did you notice how much the pink roses I grow
in my garden look like this embroidered piece?)

Beautiful! Your grandma was a most excellent stitcher. And you're right - they do look like the roses in your garden.
I just love this beautiful rose dresser scarf!! What a sweet treasure to be able to display!! Your Grandma was very talented!! Have a lovely Friday! xo Heather
Such lovely work - and what a treasure it is to pass along to a daughter.
My Grandma had some of those but now I don't know where they are. Rats!
The dresser scarf is lovely and even more so because it came from your Gran.
bon weekend
That is just so pretty..your Grandma sure did a lovely job on it :)
What a beautiful reminder of your grandmother. Such gorgeous stitching.
What a treasure you have in the dresser scarf done by your grandmother, Gayle! It is absolutely beautiful. I'm glad to see that you treasure it enough to have it out where its beauty can be seen. Hugs.

Gayle...I adore this type of work and what a treat that it was made by someone in your family. Do you know what it's called? I have several pieces of it and just love it but don't know much about the process.
Happy Spring.

These are beautiful! Isn't it a shame the art of embroidery isn't learned by young girls today? It would be so much more productive then texting.
Hi Gayle...what a beautiful piece of handiwork. Even better when it was made by someone you loved. I agree..it does look very much like your roses! I hope you and your family have a wonderful weekend...with no storms :)

They could have been copied from the roses in your garden! Beautiful work and so lovely that it could be passed down to someone like you who would treasure it Gayle. It is still in perfect condition - I'm sure your grandma would be thrilled to see how it has been cared for.
I have some of these 'rose' treasures that I found stuffed in my mother's cedar chest. The hand work is amazin'!!! Yours is in excellent condition.
Thanks for sharin' sweeite.
God bless and have yourself a fantastic weekend!!! :O)
Hi Gayle, thanks so much for coming over and saying hi..do love your wonderful dresser scarf..even more precious that your Grandmother made it❤
What a treasure and I am happy that you use it and can view it daily and remember her and her talent!
Beautiful, and even sweeter that it was made by your Grandmother. I too often wonder if they are looking down and smiling at a Grandaughter.
I have some embroidery my Mum, Grandmother & aunts made & I treasure them but I have no daughters or granddaughters to follow on with them.
Beautiful work, you are lucky to have some of your Grandma's beautiful work.
It is beautiful! She did wonderful work! My great grandmother and grandmother had a sewing shop at one time. It's a skill that is lost to me, sadly.
It really is a beautiful piece, a treasure.
a simply BEAUTIFUL dresser scarf.
and for sure she is smiling down on your thinking...ahhhh, I am so glad she likes it.
Your grandmother's handwork is perfection! It's so nice that you have this lovely piece out where you can enjoy it!
Blessings,
