Relics in Situ

Needlework Historians

We research early modern needlework to learn about the lives of women and how they contributed to their world.

Through lectures and hands-on work shops, we share this information with other historical professionals, needlework enthusiasts, and anyone else interested in culture and craft of the early modern period.

Watch our introductory video to get a taste for what we do.
