Machinery makes light work of wall hanging
Published: 06 February, 2008
Embroidery firm GSUK has helped make art history by supplying the industrial machinery to help an artist create the largest piece of machined embroidery.
Artist Alice Kettle began her project, entitled ‘Looking Forwards to the Past', on a domestic embroidery machine. But the 16.5m by 3m wall hanging was so large GSUK supplied an industrial machine to help speed it up.
The company also supplied the software for designing the piece, which is now on display on the main wall of the new wing at the Winchester Discovery Centre in Winchester, Hampshire.
