Lecture: Embroidered Beasts by Relics in Situ

Feb 12, 2025, 10 to 11 AM

The Green Mountain Chapter of the Embroiderers Guild of America's is sponsoring this lecture at our next upcoming meeting. We are fortunate to have a lecture entitled " Embroidered Beasts " by Relics in Situ with Erin Harvey Moody and Christy Gordon Baty. The brief description of the talk is: "Animals were a favorite motif in Elizabethan and Jacobean needlework -- from leopards and lions, to bears, bunnies and monkeys, to unicorns, camels and elephants. We will celebrate this theme by examining a wide variety of 16th and 17th century needlework in close up detail, looking at materials used, colors, and techniques."

Questions can be addressed to gmc.vt.ega@gmail.com

Social time begins at 9:30am and lecture starts promptly at 10am. Non-members of the Embroiderers Guild of America are welcome to attend as our guest.
