I found this lovely embroidered tray cloth in a charity shop
recently. To be honest, I found it a few weeks ago, but somehow, it always ended up at the bottom of the ironing pile! Now, how did that happen?!
Beautiful sewn - the colours are still so bright.
I'm finding it more and more difficult to find pretty things
at charity shops, perhaps people are a bit more careful what they give away
these days!

What a lovely find...and no stains!
It is really a very pretty cloth, a lot of work went into that piece. Glad it found a home where it is appreciated and loved.
You really do find some lovely things on your charity shop visits!
It is lovely Liz, such pretty colours! xx
that is a very pretty cloth. I think you're right about such finds. They're beginning to turn up in vintage shops at a premium price.
Love this tray cloth ... such beautiful work! I don't find many pretty embroidered cloths anymore either, but I don't think I'm looking in the right store. Usually I only find this sort of thing in an antique store rather than the thrift shop. Wendy x
My local hospice charity shop has a whole basket full of embroidered tray cloths at the moment, I bet they all came from the same person. I have a few but really can't buy any more, although I feel a bit sad leaving them behind, after all the effort and time someone put into making them... Yours is a beauty! xxx
I don't know if blogger is playing up or my computer mouse is. I tried to leave a comment before so not sure if you got it. However it said, You do find some lovely things when you visit charity shops.
I love how clean it is too, I come across so many vintage table cloths and linens at estate sales but they always have so many stubborn stains in that I haven't a clue how to remove!
I think it just lovely thank you for sharing with love Janice
Oh one of my favourite things to find in the charity shop! This is a lovely example.
I have a few of these but none are the right size for my table!
