Visiting Needlework All Over England

Kathy has been to Hampton Palace visiting the Royal School of Needlework on a trip to England from her current home base of Berlin. Her report makes me feel like I walked through those gates with her and met crewel enthusiasts from all over the world who are studying there.

Then she went to the Queen's Gallery to see an exhibit of costume in art.  If you are interested in Elizabethan costume you are going to be enthralled with her report.

She's also been to the Victoria and Albert Museum.  Follow the link to see great close ups of the embroidery she saw there.
