My late father had a spell in military hospital during WWII (he wasn't wounded, 
he had to have a dental operation). The Red Cross supplied him with a kit for 
embroidering a tablecloth with a garden scene in each corner. He only had time 
to complete one motif, so my granny (then his future mother-in-law) finished 
the cloth for him, and I still have it.
