Game of Thrones

projects / Thursday, March 31st, 2016

As a stitcher at Royal School of Needlework Embroidery Studio, I sometimes get an opportunity to work on very interesting projects. Game of Thrones project was one of them. A huge embroidery artwork was created to mark the release of Season 5 DVD. It was a collaborative project with The Embroiderers’ Guild, Fine Cell Work and Hand & Lock. We were supposed to keep quiet for a while, so I nearly forgot to write about it on this blog…
