When we stumbled across a hand-drawn and coloured “puzzle purse” love letter that was over 200 years old, we were astonished by its romantic beauty. Made of paper, painstakingly decorated, and containing heartfelt declarations of love, it was carefully folded in to a pinwheel and had somehow managed to survive the last two centuries almost completely intact. Using all parts of the love letter, we carefully designed the captivating and pretty patchwork pattern for this scarf, then trimmed it with pieces of the original poetry reconstructed from the author’s charming handwritten script. It reads:
"My heart is true to none but you My heart I hope you will pursue The roses and the lilies twine Since you became my Valentine Round is my ring and has no end So is my love unto my friend"
