Description
Inspired by a 17th century fragment from Wemyss Castle held in the archives of The Wemyss School of Needlework, this charming crewelwork cushion features a striking Jacobean design of stylised flowers, foliage and nuts.
Echoing the subtle shades of early, natural dyes, the embroidery is worked in crewel wools with a gentle palette of blues, grey and rose pink onto natural linen twill. The cushion is backed with twill and the design is edged with a tri-colour twisted cord, created with tapestry wool using the same colours.
