    Embroidery

Come along to RHS Garden Harlow Carr's Library, and enjoy three wonderful embroideries of the gardens, created for us by the talented Richmond & Leyburn Creative Stitchers.

The scenes on display feature three different snapshots of our beautiful garden.  Experience the range of vibrant Spring and mellow Summer floral displays alongside the Friendship Bridge on Streamside nestled among Meconopsis and candelabra primulas.

To create these stunning embroidered works, three photographs were taken and each cut up into 48 squares.  These were then given to each of the embroiderers to interpret in their own individual way.  The finished pieces were then put together like a jigsaw to re-create the three whole pictures in embroidery form.
