Some more Peacock swap/playing cards that I picked up last week. The one on the left is a bit hard to see clearly; it is green and gold on the black background. The other two are so unusual, I nearly missed them on my hunt for peacock themed cards!

This is part of a table runner (or scarf as the Americans call them). The design is unfortunately too big for my scanner, but I wanted to include at least part of it here. The stitching is absolutely incredible. I think it is called Swedish Weaving - on a material similar to Huckabuck, and the stitches don't show in full on the reverse.
