Forget-Me-Not
This sweet little verse is found as an entry in my great-grandmother’s autograph book, dated from the early 1880’s. Combined with motifs and pattern bands from my collection of ‘little books’ of the same time period, the pin pillow and berries make a sweet trio of smalls. Shown in a tonal blue color scheme of just two shades, these can be easily changed up to a favorite color and fabric/floss combination.
