not your typical embroidery...

These napkins and handkerchiefs are from a set of embroidery by Kate O'Conner (discovered via dainty doll). She gets her inspiration from the most unlikely of places: Craigslist, "missing" posters, and just goofy things she's heard people say. I love how these look like scribbled notes too. So neat (and funny) to see such every day language and handwriting on such a traditionally prime and proper place, the frilly hankie.
