Collecting textiles
Embroidery designs
March 30, 2008
THIS is a more recent acquisition and bought by my partner on a trip to Laos last year. I have tried to check the origins of cross stitch in Laotian textiles and, while I wasn’t able to find much online – without wading through pages of academic writings – I found loose references to a French influence. If anyone can tell me more, I’d be thrilled to know, or be pointed to good reference materials or websites.
