Hi Magdalena!
The cover you are thinking of was a project in the premier issue of
Threadneedle Street, a magazine which explored historic needlework. I'm
not sure the magazine survived the market for which it was intended. I
did the book cover you refer to. It was a prayer book cover made by QE1
for her stepmother Katherine Parr, as a gift. It featured knotwork style
goldwork and Katherine Parr's initials in the center of the design. I
would be glad to photocopy the article for you, if I can remember what I
did with it, as it was back about 2 1/2 years ago that I did the project
and significantly longer before that since the article was published.
