[QUOTE="Lucille.b, post: 448094, member: 51"]How to describe this? Needlework, but a more specific word maybe? Some of the beads on the snake have gone missing, but the beads look older to my eye. I might take a stab at a restoration if I could find similar beads. There is a piece of cardboard or something under the fabric. Sewn in. Do you think this was a kit or just some folk-arty piece? From the back this looks a bit older. Has some fading, for some reason my photo next to the soup can really enhanced the colors, a bit more faded than it shows. Last pic shoes colors better. Was from a drop dead fantastic estate sale. Thanks for taking a look.
