The piece is in excellent condition

I do believe this has a fair number of years on it

and for me it doesn't get much better than the blue and red combinations on this 19th century needlepoint pouch--I can't decide which side I like best

A hanger (wire might be best) could be added to the back for hanging

Finely Hand Crocheted Drawstring Pouch antique printing block The piece is in excellentI know from the seller that this very finely crocheted bag came out of an old estate in Pennsylvania, and though it is in near perfect condition, I am pretty certain it is 100 years old or so, and definitely it was all hand done. I think the colors and patterning as well as the shape of it, with pointy tip at the bottom are just terrific, plus that pink border with tiny knots along the top. With a nice long drawstring, I believe original to it, too.
