Quaker Berry
A collection of traditional Quaker motifs are scattered across this berry design. The silk berry's central motif includes a monogram (alphabet included), and is stitched in a multi-colored palette. The linen berry motifs are stitched in a single color, although a multi-colored color key is included.
The silk berry topper is a bit of lace for a 'cap,' topped with a miniature wooden spool. Wool and pearl-head straight pins cap the linen berry, with matching wool-covered straight pins for accent.
Quaker Berry is sold as a “partner” chartpak, a format which includes instructions and charts for linen and silk berries.
