Bayeux Tapestry Tote Bag

Mia Hansson Embroider your own Bayeux Tapestry dragons with this specially designed tote bag from artist and enthusiast Mia Hansson, author of Embroider the Bayeux Tapestry. Breathe life into the two fierce, fire-breathing dragons from Embroider the Bayeux Tapestry, as seen in the outlines from the book, in doing so paying tribute to one of the world's most incredible historical artefacts and putting your Anglo-Saxon embroidery skills to the test. Using only 2 stitches (stem stitch and Bayeux stitch) and the four shades of 2-ply crewel wool used by Mia in the book, gain inspiration from Mia's own designs or use her outlines to experiment with your own colour ways. Whether you're new to embroidery or looking to enhance your skills, this tote bag is the perfect chance to practice the designs from the book alongside Mia, or to choose your own creative destiny and embroider how you see fit.
