Maidestone Museum, England

Today's adventure was to the Maidstone Museum. It contained several little embroidery treasures. The first is this cutwork blouse. The technique is called Broderie Anglais.



Then we saw this amazing peapod jacket in redwork.




And the most amazing of all (to me) was this beaded stumpwork tray. I have included the official description. As usual, the lighting was terrible.
