Ever True, Ever the Same, 19th C Punch Paper Embroidery Hand bisque cat I believe that is RussianDefinitely among my very favorite punch paper embroideries I've had this little hand has likely endured 150 years or so, remaining ever true indeed, not a stitch lost from that heart, though perhaps not exactly the same, having, I presume, lost the tips of a few fingers along the way. All the better to speak of lasting love I'd say and perhaps to subtly give a middle finger to anyone untrue! 3 1 8" t not including ribbon; 1 13 16" wide. Good
