Double issue (Vol. 65, Nos. 1 & 2, 1982) of the Bulletin of the Needle and Bobbin Club. It opens with two articles on John Nelham, a London drawer of embroidery designs, based on an inscription on a 17th-century raised-work satin panel at Blair Castle, with comparable panels in other collections. A long illustrated paper by Irena Turnau surveys the knitting guilds and hand-knitting trades of Europe from the 13th to 18th century. Shiela Betterton writes on quilting and patchwork worldwide, with a bibliography and photographs of whole cloth and other quilts. The issue ends with book notes on embroidered gardens, a history of needlework and French royal tapestries, plus officer lists and club notes.
