Pair of Antique Pillow Covers or Panels / Beauty and Duty

These cotton panels are not shams - but probably sham or pillow covers - meant to be laid over pillows on the bed. Small age marks here and there - but they do not take away from the beauty of these pieces. These beautiful hand-stitched red work panels are exquisite - and read as follows:

I Slept and Dreamt that Life was Beauty

I Woke and Found that Life was Duty
