Victorian Angels in Redwork

"Angels Sing Thee To Thy Rest"

Victorian angels in redwork

After finding a vintage example of this design in a New England antiques shop, I decided to reproduce the motif and to investigate its meaning.   The Victorians loved angels!

My research about this motif is currently published on this website in my Redwork History book, Redwork Embroidery and Needlework Traditions in Europe and America, previously a printed book, but now, only an e-book, offered free of charge.
