    I always wondered if they used books to copy pictures from. Thanks for clearing that up for me.

    What a treasure she has. I hope someone can fix the tear in it for her.

    Thanks for sharing... Both of you!

    It is pretty well torn up on the back, she is thinking of putting a muslin sheet on the the back to stabilize it and use unbleached muslin on the front. The top 4 inches are disintergrating.
