    Hi, can anyone please help to identify this. I think it is an old needlepoint or embroidery but I would appreciate if anyone can tell me anything else. It is approx 18cm squared and has been sewn on to a silk like fabric. Thanks

    While I don't know much about needlepoint, this looks like it could be one of those kits that were purchased which included the pattern on a backing, the yarns, needle and sometimes a small stretcher. I remember them being popular in the 80s and 90s. Wait for others to give opinions.

    It does indeed appear to be a piece of needlepoint made from a stamped kit. The internet identifies the bird as a bullfinch made from an Anchor pattern. (I cannot verify the latter.) I would think vintage rather than antique and produced in the first half of the 20th century (which is consistent with the popularity of petunias.) At 7", a small, decorative wall hanging rather than a pillow or seat cover. Let's see what others think.
