The Bayeux Tapestry: The Survivor Part II
The story of the survival of this magnificent medieval masterpiece is almost unbelievable. Part II includes the tapestry as inspiration for three French plays along with the work of Charles Stothard. #thebayeuxtapestry #medievalembroidery #embroideryhistory #podcast #stitchsafari

The Donning of Cloth
Every morning usually begins with the donning of cloth in the form of clothing. Cloth envelops us from morning to night; we slumber between it, we use it to make our homes more comfortable and appealing, and according to statistics, a large percentage of people worldwide, work with it in the textile industry. #stitchsafari #stitshsafariblog #ancientcloth #cloth #clothing
