Who Are We?
The Scottish Tapestry Trail is a Scottish registered charity (SC053806) dedicated to celebrating Scotland’s rich heritage, culture and communities through the art of stitching. Bringing together stitchers, storytellers, historians and local groups, we aim to create a vibrant network that preserves and shares Scotland’s stories through textile art. “Sharing our story one stitch at a time” reflecting our belief that every stitch contributes to Scotland’s shared story, with an ambition to become a membership organisation that welcomes and supports stitchers from across Scotland and beyond.
Come and join us
Join The Scottish Tapestry Trail at The Stirling Smith Gallery and Museum on Sunday 25 October.
This free ticketed event will feature an inspiring programme of speakers, including Dr Andrew Crummy MBE, Dr Rodney Mountain, and Aoife McKenna Curator at The Smith Gallery and Museum. Following a sandwich lunch, the afternoon will be dedicated to a relaxed Stitch and Share session, we warmly encourage stitchers to bring along tapestry panels and other textile projects they are currently working on. Whether you are an experienced needleworker, a heritage enthusiast or simply curious to learn more, we invite you to join us in celebrating Scotland's stories, creativity and communities through stitch.
