Threads of History - The story of the Bayeux Tapestry - Like many who love needlework, I consider the Bayeux Tapestry to be one of the most amazing embroideries ever stitched. I have studied this work since I was a child and have visited Bayeux to see the tapestry 7 times. After learning the "Bayeux Stitch" I have worked on my ownembroideries featuring scenes of this 11th Century embroidery. This
new lecture will feature some of my work along with the history and
secrets that this epic embroidery still keeps today. The lecture
includes pictures, a pull out of the tapestry and my own stitched
pieces based on the original. This wonderful piece of art still
speaks to us today and has influenced my work on several levels.
