Stitchery, Old and New

There were some beautiful examples of stitchery at Trerice where we were with friends on Wednesday.  I hadn’t heard of Stumpwork before and loved this old example.

There was also a beautiful curtain where crewel work was the decoration.

The reverse appliqué circles that I made a few weeks ago (bottom two on the right) are being sewn onto the Redruth Story coat ready for Pasty Day in our town at the end of the month.
