WHAT A LABOR OF LOVE! This style of needlework has been
nicknamed "POPCORN" or "yo-yo" and it is easy to see why...
hundreds of small, fabric rondels are sewn into groups of four,
which are
then sewn together to make a top for a bed cover, probably
as a gift to a grandchild or newlywed. <P> CONDITION: Excellent <P>The popcorn rondels are sewn onto a pink
fabric. <P> A FINE EXAMPLE OF WHAT
WOMEN DID DURING THE 19TH/FIRST QUARTER 20th c, ON LONG WINTER
NIGHTS . I have not counted how many small roundels were made to piece together enough for this bed cover. Make it a family project on a cold winter night! And please let me know!
