Description

This adorable Sewing Roll and “W” Basket Pin Disc set was designed to emulate the needle rolls and huswifs of the 19th century. They are part of the First Stitches Story that was crafted around the life of Esther Moon, a young Quaker girl living in the wilderness of Ohio during 1837. Her life is documented in the Meeting Notes of the Miami Meeting House in Waynesville, Ohio and gives a glimpse of what it was like to grow up during these times.

The creation and care of textiles was a part of every young  girl’s education and Esther was no exception. Visit my YouTube Channel, Susan Standley Stitch in Time, to learn more about Esther’s life and her family’s involvement in the Warren County Quaker Community.

Kits for this Sewing Roll and “W”  Basket Pin Disc are sold separately and include the chart.

Two additional alphabets are included in the chart if you would like to personalize the epigraph and initials.

The chart includes Au Ver A Soie – Soie d’alger and DMC conversions.
