The Gawthorpe Oak Tree & Snail design is an oft-repeated rural scene featured on the pelmets of Rachel Kay Shuttleworth’s famous bed hangings made for her beautiful 16th-century tester bed given to her by her parents on her 21st birthday.

This design is the perfect introduction to the Gawthorpe Crewel Work range, providing a sample of some of Rachel's favourite techniques in the Arts & Crafts style we are so fond of.
