@stroudstory.bsky.socialFor #TextileTuesday, above the misericords in @gloscathedral, #Gloucester, sit these fabulous cushions, made by the cathedral embroiderers. These were crafted during #WW2 and after, and are a remarkable exercise in craft as impressive as the woodwork around them.

@observethedate.bsky.social@ragriggsauthor.bsky.socialCan anyone tell me anything about this piece of lace on display at All Saints Church Stamford?
Probably associated with the Browne family, wealthy textile merchants, whose brasses are nearby.
