This design is based upon an artefact found within the Staffordshire Hoard – a 6-7th Century Anglo-Saxon gold hoard.  This kit is an introduction to couching gold thread.  Medieval English Embroidery, Opus Anglicanum (English Work) reached its glory 1250-1350 AD, being world renowned, highly sought after and prized – with incredible amounts of couched gold.  Some elements of this Anglo-Saxon design are worked with the combination of stitches used in the 11^th Century Bayeux Tapestry with the addition of embroidered gold thread.  So this kit can be described as a convergence, where Anglo-Saxon meets the Bayeux Tapestry with a fore-shadowing of Opus Anglicanum.
