So back to our workbags. Typically made in the home they could be simple or elaborately decorated with embroidery, spangles and trims. Used to hold needlework, small sewing projects, knotting or knitting they were a handy accessory to own. You can find a variety of workbags in Museum collections as well as in 18th century paintings.
