Now here is something interesting I ran across - 18th century embroidered pockets for ladies.  The 1st photo is an authentic example while the 2nd is from a modern replica as shown on www. connectingthreads.com.  I think it is an ideal project to try out a style like Crewel embroidery  I imagine some modern application could be using it as a small handbag or if you have a really great design, maybe even making it a little larger and turning it into a kitchen apron.  Want to learn more about the history of 18th century pockets?  Check out this link: http://www.vam.ac.uk/content/articles/a/history-of-pockets/ Also here is a book about the history of pockets that you might find of interest: https://www.amazon.com/dp/0300253745/?coliid=IGNSRLMD3SHX&colid=HUITA708OUW3&psc=1&ref_=lv_ov_lig_dp_it -- source link
