Done (though preassembled). Quite pleased with my Georgian pincushion based on a pattern from the 1770 Lady’s Magazine. Basic repertoire of stitches: stem, satin, padded satin, chain, French knots, split. Quite pleased with it. Question is, what will I tackle next (after the next database upload, which should be this week or next)?

Craziness of last few months has meant barely any stitching but back to my 1771 pincushion pattern from the Lady’s Magazine. Embroidery scissors for scale

"Romantic Pursuits? Rethinking Courtship in Georgian Wales" by Angela Joy Muir.

Abstract
Existing histories of in the long eighteenth century typically focus on it as a step on the road to marriage [rarely] consider the immediate risks for unmarried women associated with courtship customs that allow or encourage premarital sex. Historians of sexual violence have identified these risks, but they rarely feature in histories of courtship. Using records from the Court of Great Sessions, this article explores the limited but tangible evidence of conjugal courtship customs in , often referred to as ‘bundling’ or ‘courtship at night’. It then interrogates records of and sexual associated with courtship to examine the blurred lines between rape and seduction, which in Wales were further complicated by courtship practices that created additional vulnerabilities for women.

Cycled to Svindersvik, the summer house of an 18th century East Indies merchant family, and had a good lunch. This is the ballroom building.

Just completed a small gift to say a big thanks to a colleague. This floral sprig is from the 1796 Lady’s Magazine and was originally designed as a sprig repeat for a gown or apron. But I rather like it on this cotton handkerchief. @fiberarts
