A Late 19th century Folk Art sweetheart pin cushion.
Heart shaped, made of faded velvet with a sand coloured sateen backing and stuffed with sawdust.
Decorated with small glass beads and sequins attached with pins, with three panels of embroidered 'Cigarette' silk ribbon and a silk fringe around the edge
'Time cannot change or alter me
Whatever may be my lot
My heart will still be true to thee
Then O' forget me not'
The pin cushion is in very good condition, some fading commensurate with age but little damage or missing beads
