    How many times have I had to stitch something just before going out the door for me or one of the boys. What a lovely painting xx

    Lorie, is there a book of women sewing or do you look for these on your own? I think a pictorial history of women sewing throughout time & cultures would be a lovely coffe table book or educational resource.

    Thank you for sharing this painting and the link to the Artists and Art Blog. I have enjoyed paging through that blog. The women William Henry Margetson painted remind me of the ladies of Downton Abbey. Love the softness of the colors. It was a surprise to see the one garden walk painting nestled in between so many lovely women.

    Wow, if I had an outfit like that, I am sure my quilting would be spectacular. It is just gorgeous!

    You can see how much the artist loved his subject. All of the paintings were beautiful. I must make the time to view more art work. Appreciate your tutorials and thank you for giving us such interesting things to look at.

    Lovely! reminds me of a Spanish painter of approx. the same period, Joaquin Sorolla, but I’ve only found one painting by him where there are women sewing; and they are sewing sails!

    This is so beautiful! I love the softness he captured in his work. And I’m stunned by the detail he achieved with watercolor. I love the lace he painted so clearly here. Thanks for the education. I appreciate getting to know more artists.
