The #OverlordEmbroidery features in the latest edition of #EmbroideryMagazine.
You can find out more about the history of this impressive embroidery, which is on display at the museum and included in your admission ticket.
We hosted @Iszi_Lawrence this week. She was filming something to be shown later on in the year.
She had a look at some items from the collection, including the Overlord Embroidery.

Did you know that the Overlord Embroidery was stitched by hand using a technique called appliqué? This involves stitching different shapes of fabric on top of each other to create a picture or effect.

On D-Day two Royal Navy mini submarines were hidden near Juno and Sword beach. They shone lights out to sea to guide the invasion fleet. Can you spot one in this section of the Overlord Embroidery?

Did you know you can 'paint' with needles? The details of the faces in the Overlord Embroidery were created using 'long and short stitch'. It gives the impression of three dimensional shading. 🎨🖌️

Did you guess right? The ship on the right is a Landing Craft Tank and it is carrying a Sherman DD tank. It had a canvas sheet on a frame around the tank so that it could float and swim. #hantsdaysout #hantsdaysin #museumathome #overlordembroidery #green #rainbows
The Royal School of Needlework made the museum’s Overlord Embroidery. Here they have used #green fabric to represent choppy seas in the English Channel. What is the ship on the right carrying? #rainbowsofhope #hantsdaysout #hantsdaysin #museumathome #overlordembroidery
