Mountmellick

The fantastic details in Anne’s pieces are testament to the hours she dedicates to her craft. One of the styles Anne creates is Mountmellick, which can take up to six months to carefully complete. Mountmellick embroidery originated in Co. Laois Ireland and is commonly known as White on White lacework. It can have several rows of stitching, which gives it the raised appearance. Mountmellick Embroidery is created on White Satin Jean fabric using cotton thread and finishing with the traditional fringe.
