Pre-order this September!
The Gawthorpe Bed Hanging

Currently in production by our incredible team and lovingly stitched by our Master Stitcher Harriet Roberts, we will soon be able to accept pre-orders for our Gawthorpe Hall Bed Hanging, which will be available for dispatch in 2025.

We are delighted to be supporting the Gawthorpe Textile Collection with each sale of this design, which replicates crewel work stitched by The Honourable Rachel Kay-Shuttleworth who, over her life-time, amassed a unique collection of historic textiles, and which is now one of the largest in the UK and the only one of its kind in Lancashire. 

With special permission from the charitable trust set up by Rachel in 1959, we are thrilled to be reproducing the jewel in the crown of the collection - a set of incredible bed hangings researched, designed, and embroidered by Rachel herself between 1908 and 1918 for the tester bed given to her by her parents.

The Gawthorpe Textile Collection is a registered charity Founded by The Honourable Rachel Kay-Shuttleworth to teach, to support creativity and wellbeing, to support employability, to preserve traditional craft skills and to share knowledge, skills and expertise across cultures.

10% of the proceeds of each sale is donated to the Trust to directly benefit the original needlework and support the wonderful work the team at Gawthorpe Hall do to protect and promote the collection.
