Embroidery of the Century

Last year our group completed a fabulous wall-hanging. It was a project devised by Lavinia Earl.
Groups of Embroiderers were asked to select a year from the last century,research the highlights of the year and illustrate them in stitch.
Our branch chose 1946. The results were very diverse and a variety of techniques were used.
Joining the panels involved a lot of team-work, chatting and tea drinking.
We were thrilled with the completed panel. Lavinia hopes to exhibit all the panels together.
She will donate all the proceeds to charity.
To look at the other panels look on -
