A Collection of Family Handwork

Sewing Basket with embroidered linen

The talented Chambers ladies created a myriad of handwork to adorn their life.  Excellent seamstresses, they were also quite talented in crochet, embroidery, quilting, tatting and other handcrafts.  The display includes dresses along with the original patterns, exquisite tatted and crocheted trims and doilies and hand stitched quilts. Found as part of the Chambers collection, these pieces are fine examples from the period.

Exhibit runs through Saturday, Sept. 24th. Tour hours are Tuesday – Friday 10 am – 3 pm and Saturdays 10 am – 2 pm. Admission is $5 per person.
