There are 48 blocks in the entire series with a diagram of the completed quilt layout. The block size is 7" x 9".  Embroider in the naturalistic colors of the flowers, using the simple, well-known stitches such as outline, lazy-daisy, buttonhole and French knot.  An ivory tone material, slightly darker than unbleached muslin, is even more effective than white for background as some of the flowers are to be embroidered in white."  If you like to make redwork items, you will probably love working with these similar stitches, but in a rainbow of available colors.  Color suggestions are given for each block just as they appeared in the newspaper during the 1930s.
