Thank you Jeri once again for your lengthy post, full of interesting information as always. I had no idea that this school existed!
Catherine Barley Needlelace www.catherinebarley.com - Subject : [lace] Wemyss School of Needlework, Scotland - Goldwork possibilities RSN = Royal School of Needlework, located at Hampton Court Palace, England. There is an article in the August/September 2016 magazine "Stitch", published in England by The Embroiderers' Guild for sale to the public (available at some local U.S.-located Barnes & Noble book stores) -- about a school supported by the Wemyss Clan/family, near Fife Scotland, that has been in operation since 1877. The founding of this small school that prepared up to 36 local girls per 6-month session for a vocation, was inspired by the Royal School of Needlework's founding in 1872.
