I began on this dress by dyeing a fabulous mid-century slip. I was so captivated by the openwork trim, that I mimicked it in the design. I found an illustration in an anatomical textbook that had a similar pattern to describe the circulation to the lungs and abdomen. I used a variety of different recycled fabrics to appliqué onto the dress, including velvet for the leg bones and tailbone, satin for the pelvis and back ribs, silk for the circulation, and blue leather for the amoeba shapes. I also left a lot of the threads loose and dangling from the abdomen.

This fourteenth-century Bishop's Chair with an impressive carved canopy made for J L Pearson, Cathedral architect fom 1870-93. It is unlikely, however, the chair originally ever had an integral canopy. The chair is of primitive joined construction. It has been assembled with a series of stub tenons secured by pegs. The decorative front panel has two tiers of openwork quatrefoils, carved from a single piece of oak. The arms feature carved lions, the heads of which are restorations under Pearson. There is a chapter on the chair in the book "Britain's Medieval Episcopal Thrones" by Charles Tracy, Oxbow Books, 2015.

First steps in a second yellow mat. This shows the hem and drawnwork border which was on the mat when I bought it from a stall in Shrewsbury market hall. I am neatening the edge of the drawnwork with hemstitch. I have also marked out the area that will be stitched. A tedious job, but it's worth taking the time to do this properly - it makes the actual stitching much easier and mistakes less likely.

Butterfield during his 1864-5 restoration of the church reset the fragments of the stalls provided by Bishop Richard Fox in the early 16thC. in the western bay of the choir. The friezes of openwork panels have been fixed above the coving rather than, as originally, fixed to it. Some panels bear Fox's pelican badge and the diocesan arms, but the most prominent feature is large medallions with human heads in profile. Pilasters separate them with Renaissance foliate drops and these continue below the mid-rail as pendant posts which end in corbel figures.

Detailed pictures of the Practical Sampler I completed in May 2011. Most of the bands are based on designs and inspiration from the DMC booklet "Broideries Ajourées Sur Toile" from the Antique Pattern Library www.antiquepatternlibrary.org
The multicolour stripes were just testing out various thread sizes and types on the same stitch. The open band was not inspired by the DMC book - I wanted to find out if there was enough slack in the uncut threads to make deflected-element diamond shapes.
