Block of the Month - Redwork

Grandma Rachel loves to do Redwork! Redwork embroidery was very popular from about 1880-1920. Patterns were stitched in Red (sometimes Blue) on a muslin background. This type of stitching, popularized by the Kensington School for Girls in England during the 1880s, was called the Kensington Stitch but we mostly know it today as backstitching or outline stitching.
