The new old Sofa

Sometimes things don't go as you plan them. Mmm, wait they usually never go as per plan and each new changing plan is a challenge that the universe throws at you to see where you are choosing to dig your heels and when you are planning to go with the flow.
I know these words almost seem cryptic so in short I had good intentions to post every single day of this July month but I decided to go with the flow rather than taming my mind and keeping it under control. I still have a few topics that are still relevant and intend to post them ... sometime.

Drawn Thread Vintage piece

I found this beautiful vintage drawn thread embroidery piece for a steal at a local consignment shop.
I tried doing some research on the pattern but haven't found much information to conclusively claim the origin of this piece. The Drawn Thread technique came from Italy and was adopted in many east European countries and it may be from Ukraine but its tough to say that without any doubt.

I am sharing some pictures please let me know if you have any clues.





Thank you for all your tips and informations :)
