Memorial to William Embleton-Fox (1850-1919).
By WJ Pearce, 1921.
Walter John Pearce (1857-1942) was born in Brighton. He became apprenticed to a cabinet maker, then a painter and decorator. By the 1890s he had set up business in Manchester. He had a workshop at 41 Gartside Street, and by the 1920s had moved his business to Wilmslow. In 1911 he described himself as an artist in stained and decoration, glass and mosaic.
This version is repacked issue of 1988 Monogram kit for “Help Hospitalized Veterans” funding. I presume it was released circa 2005 but not so sure. I purchased it from a seller in the U.S. on eBay. The shipper box arrived in pristine condition and the item was really well packed but when I unpacked the layers of bubble sheets I found the plastic bag was badly torn. So strange so I contacted the seller but the guy said he sent a mint one and suggested that the photos I sent are not the item he sent. Ha….. I searched his feedback and in the past buyers said that they received items of the same sort but different quality. Well, I originally intended to keep the kit in the bag but now with torn packaging I will just build it. Some people are not honest and it is not avoidable…
So I just built it. Originally I just wanted to snap together to see the assembled piece and do the proper work (gap filling, painting and such) later but during the course of building which took only 1 hour – most time was used to trim parts flash being an old kit – I thought I’d give it a simple black wash only but then a bit of dry brushing was added. However the quick painting took only half an hour. Later I will still disassemble it for the right job but in the meantime it does not look that bad as is but of course if I can ignore those horrible unfilled gap lines… I know this quick job does not do justice for this good kit but someday! For now I even leave the “Limited Edition” sticker on : )

When i first saw this monogram i actually didnt really like her,but since i had a opportunity to get her through winning in the Wclub lottery i thought why not,and after seeing her in person and looking at her she is reallly starting to grow on me,and also that dress is just awesome lol and she also has the coolest shoes!!! which i havent photographed lol
After shaping the outline, I filled with quilled shapes and had everything set in pins. However, gluing to the card was difficult because the middle was so soft and fragile. I'd suggest gluing the frame first to the card, then filling in a non-moving object.
Monograms are an elegant, understated, versatile, and a dramatic visual reminder of your new life together.

I own a little collection of vintage copper stencils for monogram embroidery as well as the original brushes and fabric paint that where used to transfer the designs. So far I only used the stencils for embossing or fabric printing - this is my first hand embroidered version of the monogram....
