Choice & Precious Work
If you are in England ZOOM to Witney Antiques and check out their current exhibit, Choice & Precious Work. Firstly, it is amazingly FREE, and secondly, it is the first of two exhibits that will be showcasing the Elizabeth Hall suite of 17th c needlework & embroidery. Later pieces from the 18th c have been added to her collection by her descendants. I cannot stress to my Dear readers enough how very rare these pieces are, and that they have been so well taken care of and passed down through the family together. This is a once in a lifetime change to view such a collection~ if you cant get there, then order the catalogue! It can be had directly from Witney Antiques, or if you are in the US the Attic Needleworks will be carrying it here shortly, so give them a ring and reserve yourself a copy!
