Check out the classes we have scheduled for the summer at Primitive Homespuns in Frederick!
Registration is now open for these classes.
These botanical panels is based on the book of hours, Les Grandes Heures d'Anne de Bretagne, which was commissioned by Anne of Brittany, Queen of France, and illuminated by Jean Bourdichon between 1503 and 1508. The Renaissance-styled illustrations throughout the book are typically of one plant. We combined several of the designs to create each of our wool appliqué panels, including several flowers and a few critters, as well. In class, we will learn dimensional wool appliqué and the embroidery used to embellish the blocks. Finished designs are 17 by 9 inches.
