Gawthorpe Honeysuckle Kit

by Natalie Dupuis

In this charming design, Natalie has recreated a treasured family heirloom originally stitched by Rachel Kay Shuttleworth as a gift for her sister Nina for the event of Nina's wedding in 1910.

The curving motif depicts a beautiful Honeysuckle branch in an arched shape. Completed in twisted DeVere silks on a pure silk fabric, this delicate design can be finished as a framed piece, set into a box lid, or completed as a book cover.
