I found some very cool embroidery transfers from the 1940's on the weekend (at a vintage machinery rally, naturally).

I thought they were really nice (and in the public domain) so I put them on the website for free and you'll find links to them all on the embroidery and sewing page at http://www.knitting-and.com/embroidery/index.html

Scroll down to where it says "Vintage Transfer Booklets "

There's one booklet of medium sized floral designs, one booklet of tiny floral designs and one booklet of children's designs. My current favourites are the cowboys in the children's booklet (is that a gun or a hair dryer?) and the kitten doing the laundry.

I wish my cats would do the laundry ...
