Historian and needlepoint enthusiast Jennie Batchelor explores the role that needlework played in the lives of Jane Austen and other women of her generation. Drawing on her research for the recently published "Jane Austen Embroidery" (co-authored with Alison Larkin), Batchelor discusses and shares images of her discovery of a cache of presumed lost embroidery patterns from the Lady’s Magazine (1770-1832), a publication we know Austen read, to reflect on the relationship between and pleasures of craft, writing and work in her time and our own. This is the third in Jane Austen and Company's "Staying Home with Austen" series.
