Part III of Across the Pond - The Samplers

Hi ya! I must say, I am enjoying writing Part III of this adventure. As you know, I am a textile artist, author and instructor. I simply love inspiring creativity in my students. 

Well, this teacher was truly inspired by the incredible embroidery work that was on display at the Montacute House. Talk about perfect timing for my trip!

Here is a mirror featuring incredible stumpwork. 

I love the chair cushion and

look at this duvet cover!

I'm going to let the rest of the photos speak for themselves. Below each photo is a description. Be sure and check out the dates! It simply blows my mind how old these are. 

I hope you enjoyed this creative journey. I'll see you back here next week with a tour of Stourhead and the Manor House in the Cotswolds. 

Light, love and hugs,

Michelle and the bunnies
