TULIPS (The design on the cover)

Do you remember when I showed my collection on Needlewoman and Needlecraft Magazines?  


Well, the other day whilst venturing round a very large boot fair, I found a lady selling vintage linens. My hand instinctively leapt forward and grabbed them, on this occasion my hands were working faster than my brain!  I wasn't sure what I was going to do with them but I knew they needed something special.  My vintage magazines were tucked safely away, so I retrieved them and sat with a cup of tea  looking through them and as if by magic this copy jumped out........


All I had to go by was the picture on the cover and the instructions inside.  With these magazines you sent for the the transfer. (click on pictures to have a closer look)
