SUMMARY:Stitched: Scotland's Embroidered Art
DESCRIPTION:A captivating new exhibition that unveils Scotland’s hidden textile treasures.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nIn an exciting collaboration with the National Trust for Scotland\, this exhibition brings together an extraordinary collection of their embroidered textiles\, many of which are being showcased for the very first time. \nVisitors will have the rare chance to explore over 80 exquisite pieces\, spanning 200 years of history from 1720 to 1920. The collection features everything from ornate armchairs and grand bed hangings to intricate fire screens\, tablecloths\, cushions\, and tea cosies. Each of these finely crafted items\, sourced from 18 of the National Trust for Scotland’s historic properties\, will be displayed alongside histories of the makers and detailed design drawings\, weaving together the fascinating stories behind these textiles. \nAs a result of a two-year research and conservation programme by the National Trust for Scotland\, many of these delicate pieces are now in a condition to be on public display for the first time. By presenting these textiles as significant works of art in their own right\, Stitched offers a fresh and inspiring perspective on Scotland’s rich heritage of embroidery and domestic interior design. Don’t miss the chance to experience these remarkable pieces and the stories they tell. \n\n\n\nEvent Details
