Study Visit: Patchwork

In this study visit with our Curator Rachel Midgely you will get the opportunity to study some of the star items from the patchwork in our Collection. We'll look at examples of a range of techniques including applique, paper piecing, log cabin, and crazy patchwork on items from the late 18th century through to the 20th century.

Our Curator will talk you through each item; discussing the techniques and fabrics that have been used to create them and pointing out interesting details for you to view up close.
