Hello List,
The photographs of the Oxburgh hangings are nicely done in the book The Needlework of Mary Queen of
Scots by Margaret Swain.
I have not had the privelege of seeing the hangings in person, but by looking at the photos in the
book through a magnifying glass, they are slips done in cross stitch, applied to a velvet
background.
The book is available in the UK from its publisher Ruth Bean, and in the States or elsewhere from
me.
