threads

Oh London...so full of taspestry and embroidery. A feast for the eye...this vignette is from Hampton Court Palace. Some of my favorite places for threads:

* V&A (this embroidery from Stoke Edith is so amazing)
* Tapisserie (a Chinoiserie canvas is my newest project!)
* Chelsea Textiles
* and The Royal School of Needlework at Hampton Court

And I opened a London 2008 set on Flickr. Enjoy!

    Excellent! It looks like the cup and saucer in the photo of teatime is the same pattern that I now have.

    I can only hope that my pictures are as wonderful as yours!
