My hand towels are made of fine linen or cotton. Some are from the early 1900’s. Most are from the 1930-50 era. Some of them are embroidered with flowers, initials, days of the week, etc. and have beautifully detailed crewel, French knots and cross-stitch. Some have crocheted edges and insets while others are tatted and pulled.
Beautiful pink and green cut work flower on a darling vintage hand towel. Pretty crochet edges for a finishing touch. This piece measures 19 inches by 13 inches.
