About

NMANDD PEACEPLUS 'Thriving Together' PEACEPLUS 3.7 is seeking a supplier for whitework and flowering embroidery in the Mournes. Whitework is an embroidery technique in which the stitch and linen are the same colour and was associated with County Down in the 19th century; flowering refers to decorative embroidery that involves stitching floral patterns, often in white thread on white linen, with floral motifs carrying specific meanings.

Insight

This opportunity could suit skilled textile artists, embroidery workshops or heritage craft organisations experienced in traditional whitework and floral embroidery. Key considerations include demonstrated expertise in County Down whitework techniques, sensitivity to the historical and symbolic nature of floral motifs, and that the work is focused in the Mournes area.
