Red Lion village pub vintage embroidery shirt

I was thrilled to find this vintage embroidered panel featuring a village pub and country lane scene with cottage, church, trees, flowers and pecking hens and the Red Lion pub in the foreground.

The natural linen panel is embroidered mostly with cotton, with some wool in the tree foliage. As ever, I pre-washed the panel in warm water and it didn't shrink or run. The rest of the shirt is constructed from carefully selected pieces of vintage table linen from my stash and it fastens with found shell buttons.

The back is made from a vintage tablecloth with part-completed embroidery and visible transfers. Again this has been laundered but the transfers may fade gradually with time and washing.
