Brandy was going through her fabric remnants, when she found a lovely yard of golden wool. She set it aside for me, to make a stole. Instead of making a plain stole, I decided to embroider it. Besides, embroidery I intend to add fringe on both sides.
I started out by cutting and piecing together the fabric. My sister was kind enough to help me with the measurements, which where 84" x 12" + 1" added to each side for felling.
I choose a pattern from a book called Early American Embroidery Designs, scaled down the pattern, traced it, and pinned it onto the wool.
