* A must watch for anyone with an interest in samplers*
This weekend’s flosstube is a talk with Rebecca Scott of Witney Antiques.
Becky is a world renowned textile historian and specialises in early English needlework and samplers dating from the early 17th century through to the mid-19th
century.
Witney Antiques is known for its annual exhibitions and accompanying catalogues, and is now in their 33rd year!
Becky authored the Shire publication “Samplers” and has written numerous articles on the subject of samplers and early modern needlework.
In this flosstube we discuss samplers, their social context, conservation and building a collection.
