Stitchers who love food! Stitching Tips: Gloriana 12 strand silk is a spun silk thread with beauty, luster, and shine of silk, but doesn’t catch on your hands. The size of one strand is comparable to other stranded silks, such as Splendor, Soie Cristale, and Soie d’ Alger. Gloriana silk is soft and remarkably easy to stitch with. Gloriana Princess Perle is an exceptionally lustrous and shiny three ply, non-divisible perle thread ideal for 18 count canvas. It is also beautiful on 25 count linen and is equivalent in size to #5 perle cotton. Twisted more tightly than perle cotton, this silk perle has the sparkle and strength that cotton lacks.

    ROYAL SCHOOL OF NEEDLEWORK Patron : H.M. QUEEN ELIZABETH THE QUEEN MOTHER LOAN EXHIBITION FURHTURE, TAPESTRY AND EMBROIDERY OF YESTERDAY AID TODAY MARLBOROUGH HOUSE Wednesday April 25™ TO Wednesday May 30™ PRICE 6 ° Ma r II)o ± ough ho use by Sir Owen Morshead. Whitehall Palace having been destroyed by fire in 1698, it was in St. James' Palace that Queen Anne set up her residence in 1702; and the Court of St. James' is still the term in official use to-day. Within a year she had created her Lord Privy Seal (John Sheffield) Duke of Buckingham, and he proceeded to erect for himself the big house looking down the length of the Mall which, rebuilt since, is known to us as Buckingham Palace. Shortly afterwards she allowed her Mistress of the Robes and close confidante, Sarah Duchess of Marlborough, to build the house in which the present exhibition is being held. From his campaign in the Low Countries the Duke had written to his wife: "You,know I never lik'd to build it at all. 'Tis not a proper Place for a great House. And I am sure," he added knowingly, "when you have built a little one you will not like it." The one which Sir Christopher Wren designed for her in 1709 is the present house minus the two top floors and certain additional rooms in the side wings. Built on so confined a site it has had to expand upwards, to the detriment of its appearance. The mettlesome Duchess was vexed by the inadequacy of its entrance from the street, and she resented too its domination by the houses in Pall Mall.

PARKS EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR #1: BAND NEEDLEWORK SAMPLER- Sarah RELPH, in her 10th year, [England, or possibly Rhode Island], October 30, 1745 Linen ground with silk thread Known as a band sampler, this was a primary learning tool for a young woman of the 17th through the 19th centuries. Through a basic marking sampler, the young lady would learn to sew and use darning stitches, necessary for her future roles as wife, mother, and housekeeper. As samplers continued to be made, religious verses and maxims were added to guide her toward a purposeful life. Decorative bands of geometrical motifs were copied across the width of the sampler and served as a reference when the young woman wished to embellish an article of clothing or household linen.
