Welland & Wye x RSN

We are delighted to introduce ‘Janwardar’, the result of a collaboration between the Royal School of Needlework Archive and Welland & Wye, a boutique producer of crewelwork fabric for interiors. Working closely with Anne Butcher (Head of Studio and Standards), the RSN Embroidery Studio team created a new design inspired by an archival document attributed to an artist known simply as ‘Schneider’. This collaboration highlights the RSN Archive’s role as a living resource, inspiring contemporary design while preserving historic needlework traditions. RSN members may be particularly interested in seeing how archival designs can be translated into large-scale textile production.
