I have great pleasure in announcing The Big List of Online Textile Collections! It is now live on the Vetty Creations website; just click on the preceding link.
About a week ago I mentioned that I was going to put together a list of all the museums I knew of that had online searchable collections. I started the list off with about five suggestions. I knew there would be more, and there were! Thank you to Laura and Nicole who each suggested a good number to add to my list. If you have further suggestions, please let me know and I’ll be happy to add them.
I’ve had a great time looking at all these websites and testing them out before putting them on the list. I know that I will have many hours of enjoyment and inspiration found through those links, and I hope you do too.
If you know of anyone who might benefit from the list, please share it with them. Put it in your guild newsletter and share it on your blog. We may as well all benefit from it!
If you haven’t already clicked through, go and visit The Big List of Online Textile Collections now. You’ll be glad you did!
White Threads is the blog of Yvette Stanton, the author, designer, publisher behind Vetty Creations' quality needlework books and embroidery products.
Thank you for this very useful list, Yvette – so much wonderful old embroidery is now online, but it’s not always easy to know where to start looking for it.
