Embroiderers are amazing people.
Embroiderers' Guild The
Guild welcomes everyone with an interest in any area of embroidery and
we are proud to be recognised as a voice for raising the profile of
textile and stitched art. No longer just the domain of fabric and
thread, textile art now embraces (amongst other things) the world of
mixed media, dyeing with rust and plants, print and videos. They hold a
historical collection, aid research, support students of all ages, and
publish “Stitch” and “Embroidery” magazines. Members around the
country are involved at whatever level they choose in meeting regularly
to listen to speakers, often in their local Branch, attend workshops,
learn new skills or build on existing ones, and participate in local,
regional and national projects.
