[HNW] embroidery articles by John Nevinson

[Kathryn Newell]

While typing up the message which had my materials re the Oxburgh 
embroideries, I was reminded of something. The reason that I was able to 
track down an article by John Nevinson on the similarity of some of the 
Oxburgh motifs and some woodcuts by a 16th century printmaker was due to an 
article. COSTUME, the journal of the British Costume Society, had an article 
in Issue #18 (1984), on the occaison of Mr. Nevinson's 80th birthday. It 
includes a complete bibliography of his articles, compiled by Santina Levey, 
many of which were on needlework and costume. I've culled the embroidery 
articles from this so you can have the fun of hunting them up. Enjoy!
