Deerfield in style:
Deerfield embroidery is an offshoot of crewel wool embroidery. In 1896 C.E., Margaret Whiting and Ellen Miller formed the Deerfield Society of Blue and White Needlework after having unearthed surviving fragments of wool worked crewel stitching from their local Massachusetts museum that dated back to the 1700s.
Design taken from a mid 18th Century Bed Hanging in the American collection of the Metropolitan Museum or Art. Typical crewel design in shades of blue on cream linen. Mounted on blue fabric covered board.
