Redwork, Bluework and Blackwork
A long time ago, you could purchase muslin "penny squares" at the local dry goods shop. These squares were stamped with designs for your stitching pleasure. Little girls would practice their stitches on these muslin squares. Monochromatic was the color scheme, so the square would be stitched with all red, or all blue or all black thread.
