The ACT Guild has led a number of embroidery and needlework projects of national significance. These are:
- The Parliament House Embroidery
- The National Maritime Museum Embroidery
- The Crimson Thread of Kinship Embroidery designed and stitched for the National Museum
- Quilt for Blundell’s Cottage
- Chair cover at Lanyon Homestead
- Repair of hangings at the War Memorial
Is the book describing the embroidered works located in the Parliament House in the gallery overlooking the Great Hall still available? If so, can one obtain a copy?
Thanks
Dale, I’m honestly not sure. If it is the one I’m thinking of (published quite a while ago), the best bet might be to contact the Australian Parliament House direct (if you can’t actually just visit their bookshop and ask). I believe that the Art and Craft Collection is managed by the Department of Parliamentary Services – details on their web site https://www.aph.gov.au/Help/Contact
