​

The style of embroidery known as Fisherton De La Mere is essentially pulled work with the addition of surface stitches.

​

It is named after the English village of Fisherton de la Mere in Wiltshire,

where, in the late 19th century Fisherton House was the home

of a distinguished embroiderer, Josephine Mary Newall

who adapted 16th and 17th century embroidery techniques

and developed and taught this style of embroidery to individuals in the parish.
