Title: Embroiderer's Guild Exhibition - Aylesbury Museum
Post by: twopence on July 07, 2017, 21:49:15 PM
I went to this yesterday and spent a while having a good look at the exhibits.  The Embroiderer's Guild moved their collection to Aylesbury Museum last year.  The content of the exhibition was wide ranging with pieces from Japan, India, Persia, America and UK.  There were also some quilted pieces and I couldn't see any embroidery on one.

Several pieces were machine embroidered and the pictures below are of a machine embroidered piece made in 1938.
