A popular activity for many English female servants, the task of embroidery developed the artistry of the woven pattern in popular cirlces. Women would usually use a nice wool (if affordable) to create their designs. The pictured pattern was "the perfect recptable to embroider the scrolling floral motifs popular on the items or clothing." Dated: 1700 * http://www.witneyantiques.com/flat.items/embroidery2.htm
